Note
This is a check done against Kubuntu Breezy Badger
Contact: FlorianEhrenthal
- Make: Apple
- Brand: Powerbook
- Model: G4, 1.5 GHz, post february 2005
Website: http://www.apple.com/
'''W A R N I N G'''
I noticed that the system-fan doesn't work correctly to cool your powerbook!! If you don't control the temperature yourself (and power-down ubuntu) you will probably kill your beloved Powerbook! Be warned!
Current Issues
- Bootsplash colors are distorted (maybe inverted?)
- CPU does only at 700MHz
- Cannot increase/decrease LCD Backlight with Fn-F1/2
