I am preparing for a Dapper Flight 4 install to see if the windfarm91 
issue on my G5 tower (PowerMac 9.1) have been resolved. I have a couple 
of questions while I am downloading the .iso file in OS X:

1) Can someone please send me a copy of an Ubuntu Dapper PPC sources 
list with all of the repositories included? I have seen a bug report for 
Synaptic not being able to add all of the Dapper repositories. As I 
don't know if windfarm_91 has been fixed, I have to be prepared for a 
max of 5-10 minutes at a time in Ubuntu. I would like to just do a "sudo 
gedit" and then copy and paste the whole shebang into the sources.list file.

2) Has the Yaboot bug been fixed? Are the path names correct now? Good 
to be prepared for that as well, since I may have limited time.

3) Problems with the ALSA sound drivers still, or has that been sussed out?

4) Any other problems to expect?

Cheers,

Brian
