| 07:04.48 | intok | Hows the state of Debian on first gen G4 iBook with Radeon graphics? |
| 07:35.33 | pahartik | intok: It worked fine on "Apple iBook G4 (late 2004)" between 2005 and 2011 |
| 07:38.08 | pahartik | intok: Would still use it but hardware stopped working |

| 08:37.33 | intok | pahartik yeah, just need something for my elderly neighbor who is still running OS X 10.4.11 on it, least someone else set her up with TenFourFox w/ adblocking and whatnot, but even that is way out of date since she shops online. |
| 08:39.06 | intok | As you can imagine she preferred to learn to shop online rather then go walk around a giant big box store with bad knees. |
| 08:59.01 | pahartik | intok: Then it sounds like "iceweasel", "xfce4" and enough RAM would be good |
| 09:00.28 | intok | yeah, it's got a gig of ram iirc |
| 09:08.31 | pahartik | intok: Have you been using PowerPC before? |

| 09:15.32 | intok | Though I did try DebianPPC on it the G4 a few years back I dropped it for the community build of UbuntuPPC as I had weird problems with the sound and GPU on Debian. But the mobo of that box went about a year and a half ago. |
