| 13:53.11 | donofrio | psydroid, do you have firefox? |
| 13:58.08 | psydroid | donofrio, it depends on what you mean by that |
| 13:58.23 | psydroid | I have it installed, yes |
| 13:58.50 | psydroid | it doesn't work, no |
| 13:58.57 | donofrio | psydroid, really? I tried and it was missing dependencies |
| 13:59.32 | donofrio | lol doesn't work ok.....I also had issues getting remmina to compile from nightly....so what do you use to brows lynx? |
| 14:00.19 | psydroid | no, I don't use debian on that hardware anymore |
| 14:00.45 | psydroid | because the ppc64 packages have been miscompiled |
| 14:01.26 | psydroid | or are targetting newer processors |
| 14:01.33 | donofrio | psydroid, how do we fix these cause it was only firefox and some issues with a few other libraies and I'd still be on sid as well, last night I had to go back to ubuntu 16.04 to get my work done.... |
| 14:02.07 | psydroid | donofrio, I don't know, I'm not a debian developer |
| 14:02.12 | donofrio | :) |
| 14:02.20 | psydroid | I installed adelie a few months ago |
| 14:02.44 | psydroid | and am waiting for freebsd 13.0 |
| 14:02.48 | psydroid | there is also void linux |
| 14:03.42 | donofrio | my kingdom for a centos that worked on g5's |
| 14:04.02 | psydroid | the funny thing is that debian ppc64 installed in qemu (with an emulated power9 processor) does have a working firefox |
| 14:05.01 | psydroid | so it's entirely targetting newer processors, I think that should be clearly specified on the debian ppc64 page |
| 14:05.17 | donofrio | wow really.....I was going to qemu a centos x32 install - teaching a friend linux getting ready for RHCT perhaps so need to setup raid and the like like redhat does.... |
| 14:05.22 | psydroid | I don't know, I tend to be practical about such things |
| 14:06.10 | *** join/#debianppc warai_otoko (~warai_oto@185.183.104.83) |
| 14:06.16 | psydroid | and on my g4, which seems to have died, I installed openbsd |
| 14:06.57 | psydroid | I'm not really interested in running debian on big-endian ppc anymore |
| 14:07.25 | psydroid | the platform is more or less on life support, unlike ppc64le |
| 14:07.28 | donofrio | right now I'm training from ubuntu 16.04 - http://paste.opensuse.org/11790384 |
| 14:07.48 | donofrio | g5's for the both of us ;) |
| 14:09.18 | psydroid | :D |
| 14:11.31 | psydroid | I think you should really take a look at these projects, especially for older hardware |

| 16:31.35 | warai_otoko | great that it's discuss in here :-) |
| 16:32.09 | warai_otoko | may I ask, if our channel is bursting with information (serious here): |
| 16:32.51 | warai_otoko | what you recommend me after the Jessie shutdown for my PS3(!) supercomputer project as Linux replacement? |
| 16:34.34 | warai_otoko | I really want to keep ppc alive on this hardware, even started kernel compiling last year: https://gitlab.com/aethyx/ps3linux/tree/master/Precompiled%20Debian%208.x%20(Jessie)%20kernels |
| 16:34.57 | warai_otoko | my work halted, unintentionally :-( |
| 18:16.37 | donofrio | lurk here answers will follow |
