I should add you don't have to upgrade if you are happy with your current release and are still receiving updates for it. The 'Workarounds' section below is there if you run into any PowerPC specific problems. It's pretty straightforward through the Update Manager, but if you require further info then there are instructions in the release notes. You can of course also install Ubuntu 11.04 or 11.10 by upgrading from a previous version of Ubuntu. It is not as light as Lubuntu, but it does have round window corners, transparency and shadows whilst still being fast! There are various things you can try with the 11.10 live cd, although the severity of the symptoms change on different machines. The mini cd is a great way to install if there is not a live cd version available or if you can't get it to run correctly. The post now also includes instructions to install Ubuntu, Xubuntu (), Kubuntu (), etc from the mini cd. If somebody would like to start updating the FAQ by cutting and pasting sections from here then please feel free to do so! I would be very pleased if you do! :-) So please do still check out the FAQ and release note links at the bottom of the post!Ī lot of the information really belongs in the PowerPC FAQ so that everybody has the opportunity to edit it and keep it up to date. This post has grown somewhat from it's original idea - a simple set of notes to install Lubuntu () on PowerPC - to something that more likely resembles an updated PowerPC FAQ! However, it has never been by intention to replace the FAQ with this post, and in fact, I've tried not to duplicate information that is documented well elsewhere. The only section that has not been moved across is the Install Lubuntu section. Please refer to them for the latest information. :arrow: Most of the information in this post has now been moved to the and the pages.
