Public bug reported:
Maybe not technically a bug, but deserves consideration --
Machine in question:
iMac G4 roundbase, 800MHz
768MiB system memory
60GiB HD
On startup, the system's volume is set very high, probably max. When
using "pro" speakers (the Harmon-Kardon baseballs) the only way to
change the volume is to lower the master once a gnome session is loaded.
Keyboard controls do work eventually, but not soon enough to prevent
getting blasted out of your chair.
Effects may include speaker damage, spilled coffee, chest pain, angry
coworkers/librarians/parents, hearing loss, and not wanting to use the
live disc anymore.
