In a word, no. You would need a way to "emulate" a PowerPC Mac; that's not something Virtualbox does. To do that, you would need something more like PearPC from http://pearpc.sourceforge.net/ I have never tried it... interesting idea if you have the time and inclination to investigate it! For some classes of bugs, I'd be a bit worried about determining whether a bug report was a bug in the emulator, or a bug in the Lubuntu PowerPC image -- but may be worth a try. BTW, for a way to sort of go in the other direction (PowerPC hardware or a very fast monder Intel-based PC, Linux OS, but you want to run old classic MacOS apps) you can use SheepSaver http://sheepshaver.cebix.net/ -- this is currently far outside Lubuntu's world, but if we get a bunch of people using Lubuntu on PowerPC who are converting from MacOS, and want to run a few of their favourite old apps, it might be handy :) Jonathan _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop Post to : lubuntu-desktop@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
