Ubuntu 6.10 'Edgy Eft' has gone candidate and yet there still does not appear to be a solution to the thermal fan issue for my G5 single PowerMac 9.1. I still have fans that run like jet engines when I boot into Ubuntu. This will be the third version of Ubuntu that does not support lower-end PPC64 machines. I really don't like Fedora Core, but these issues with PPC64 machines and Debian based systems can not go on forever without some sort of solution. This has been going on for so long that I am tempted to try and change distros again. I can't run my box for more than five minutes at a time at this point without having to shutdown.
