Right. But virtualization is not new in 12.10 ... how was an Intel/AMD-specific test case like this successfully passed on PPC in 12.04 testing? How did that happen? I don't understand. >From reading through the server testcases, I think the only one with a glaring PPC issue is the one I referred to in a recent email, SWI-011, the "Virtualization Host" one. Others may need some minor fixup (I'm seeing a default hostname of "new-host" where the test cases assume "ubuntu", for example), but these are trivial for any decent tester to figure out, and are probably not PPC-specific anyway. Meanwhile, if anyone has successfully got a 12.10 GUI Lubuntu working on PPC (G4) with an nVidia video card, please let me know the secret :) Jonathan -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-qa Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-qa More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
