@jabirulo

Thanks for testing.
No sure what the problem is.
Will have to see what happens with the rc5 when it is available.

openSUSE 13.1 PowerPC works very well on my Sam440ep Flex. Thanks to Spectre660 for the kernel 3.16.3. Spectre also has created the RC 6 of the kernel 3.17.

@ACube: Spectre doesn't have a Sam at the moment. Please send him a new Sam.

Thanks but maybe they should hold it until next year.
Motherboards are dying on me this year faster then poisoned crows.

@Hypex

Theoretic yes.

Links:

PowerPC_440_Host_Kernel

PowerPC_Host_Userspace

PowerPC_440_Guest_Kernel

But I think the Sams are to slow for MoL/KVM.

But this could be a problem for the Sams:

Quote Alexander Graf:

Quote:

Please keep in mind that you need to run 32 bit userspace with a 64 bit kernel
for this to work.


Sams are 32-bit systems with 32-bit kernels.

On a 32bit System it is always 32bit. So the reminder was only needed for 64bit systems.

@Spectre660
Ok as usual it is better to run old software on old hardware.
What was the last kernel with kvm support?

My 3.14.0 Kernel attempts to enable KVM support .

Today, what is the best linux for sam 440?
I have just installed the last Ubuntu (14.10), it sems to be more responsive than before.

But i have no sound. Is it normal?
I have this error :

ALSA error: No suitable mixer element found.

ALSA error: snd_mixer_attach failed: Aucun fichier ou dossier de ce type.

Thanks. It worked. I never did this in previous versions.
I did the same for video but I could not see any videos.
Are there problems with not installed codecs ?
If yes, how could I install these?

@Yescop

The problem with the video is that the standard players have altivec enabled.
I had compiled a version of mplayer without altivec that works under Lubuntu 14.04 .
not sure if it works under Lubuntu 14.10 .
I can't test it or compile one for Lubuntu 14.10 at the moment as I don't have a working Sam.

Ok. I also tried to view a youtube video. It is very slow (normal) but there is no sound.
How could I change it ?

I only got sound using SMplayer and my Mplayer.
You can try installing the Mplayer then SMplayer and SMtube.

sudo apt-get install smplayer smtube

see the link below for the Mplayer and configuration instructions for SMplayer.

http://forum.hyperion-entertainment.biz/viewtopic.php?f=52&t=2201#p25116

By the way I found that the OS 4.1 tools gave better performance for Youtube videos including a full screen option .
