![]() I wouldn't reccomend installing it on your main machine until you are completely comfortable with Linux though. MintPPC is probably the "best" distro for a new Linux user. Most issues lie within the scope of those two statements. Its important to remember that Debian didn't build the hardware, and Apple never intended for anything but OS X to run on your ibook. ![]() I will totally agree installing Linux is intimidating, especially coming from OS X, where everything is handed to you on a silver platter. (although basic browsing is no issue on it. and to think that Omniweb almost saved me. Is it a good PPC browser or is it in beta/slow/bad, etc.? I am running out of options on the Macs I have that still run Tiger. My last question: How is the Aurora project? I am going to try it out myself soon, but I never hear anything about it. I am hoping that this browser, for one, continues to be updated, but also stays in PPC support, especially Tiger support. My question is: Will Omniweb be updated soon? Do you know if they are going to drop their long-running Tiger (or PPC in general) support? Currently the newest one supports Mac OS 10.4.8 (Tiger)- Mac OS 10.9 (Mavericks?-as a PPC/older Intel user, I don't care at that point). I was also on some other website with Omniweb, and certain click-able items weren't working these buttons were essential to what I was trying to do. For example, I am on TFF now because both Tiger Webkit and Omniweb are not able to log me in to my MR account. However, with extra testing, I have noticed that VERY specific things do not work. Everything on YouTube works under Omniweb, which is a surprise, considering Google likes to update web standards every 5 minutes, even if they don't change the appearance of their product. I really like the browser so far, and at first I thought it was fully up-to-date, even though it was last updated in 2012, or so. Obviously there is a lot random information when it comes to whether or not a browser will continue being updated, and what not.Īnyway, I recently discovered Omniweb and found it to save my 800Mhz iBook G4's life, as poor Camino is no longer being updated, Safari is not too fast on it, and TenFourFox is the laggiest thing ever. Just a quick question about these two browsers for anyone who may know.
