Does anyone test the upcoming Lubuntu 14.04 PowerPC?

I guess not. Be good to add AmigaOne to that list.

@Hypex

OK, I've added my Sam and my X1000 to the Ubuntu PPC hardware database: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/Testing/PPC%26Mac64/HardWare#preview

I'd love to get a Linux dual-install up and running just to play around with getting access to hacking some Linux device driver sources and possibly reworking some drivers over to actually being AmigaOS drivers usable on 68K and PPC NG systems

since I have to work on some driver level code for inside Polymorph-VMM anyway

@xeno74

Seems we can't use usual machine names now since the meaning of "AmigaOne" has been confused. What's an original AmigaOne called these days? I could say AmigaOne SE/XE/µA1 but I'd like one name to cover a whoie series, not a full model designation!

@Belxjander

Sure that's possible. I've thought the same for some Linux drivers. And IIRC, the SB AHI driver is based on Linux source code.

*** Lubuntu: Testers needed for PowerPC 14.04 ***

Release time soon, so why not help out with the testing? A PowerPC ISO will only be released if it is tested and passes all tests. This is a VERY time consuming process, so if you are able to help out I'm sure it would be greatly appreciated by the lubuntu-qa team. Lots of info about testing in the FAQ and Lubuntu wikis. Don't assume somebody else is going to do it for you, otherwise you might be in for a shock (kubuntu users?). I've updated the "Known Issues" page with the current bugs from the tracker. Most of them are old (and not necessarily powerpc specific). I think there are workarounds for most, although I've yet to try the one for the live installer. Please don't spam this thread with waffle. Comments in this thread mean nothing. The release team are only interested in official bug reports and official tracker testing results. Remember to confirm any existing bugs as this adds 'heat' to the bug. Please also update the PowerPC Known Issues page with any new bugs/workarounds as it makes life so much easier for the next person. If you have a problem that you want help with then RAISE A NEW THREAD.

I have edited the page PowerPCKnownIssues (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCKnownIssues). I have added some bugs and solutions.

Lubuntu 14.04 works on all Sams and on the A1-X1000.
