Njengoba sekwenzekile nge-Ubuntu esemthethweni nangamanye ama-flavour ayo, ukwakhiwa kwe-32-bit PowerPC nakho kuzonyamalala ku-Lubuntu 17.04 OS, nayo eyekile ukusebenza nalobu buciko, ishiya abasebenzisi bengenayo uLubuntu kusukela manje kuqhubeke.
Kuze kube yilezi zinsuku zokugcina, bekucatshangwa ukuthi iLubuntu 17.04 izosebenzisana nePowerPC, noma kunjalo,bazoyeka ukushicilela ama-ISO nsuku zonke ngoFebhuwari 13, yize singaqhubeka nokulanda ama-ISO asekhishiwe kuze kube namuhla, yize kunganconyiwe ngenxa yenkinga yokungazinzi nokuntuleka kosizo.
Lokhu kuguqula kube yiLubuntu 16.10 kuLubuntu yakamuva ehambelana ne-PowerPC I-32-bit, ifa nayo isikhathi (yize singasebenzisa inguqulo 16.04 LTS kuze kube u-2019). Ngalolu shintsho, uLubuntu ujoyina konke ukusatshalaliswa okunqume ukukwenza ngaphandle kwalobu buciko, isakhiwo esivele sibonakala siyinto yakudala.
Lokhu kushiya Ubuntu Mate njenge okuwukuphela kwe-distro ezosebenza nge-32-bit PowerPC ye-Ubuntu 17.04, ngakho-ke uma usene-PC ephatha lobu buciko, kuzoba ukuphela kwenjabulo yohlelo lokusebenza lwe-Ubuntu 17.04 ongayisebenzisa.
Amanye ama-flavour Ubuntu isivele ilahle ukwesekwa ne-PowerPC ngonyaka odlule, Ngoba kungubuciko bokwakhiwa obuya ngokuyekisa ukusetshenziswa, buvuna ukwakhiwa kwe-x84 ne-x64, okuyizona ezisetshenziswa njengamanje kwimishini eminingi yekhompyutha.
Ngaphandle kokungabaza, kubukeka sengathi izinsuku ezinhle zakudala zokwakhiwa kwePowerPC sezizophela, ngoba manje zenziwa ezinhlelweni ezimbalwa kakhulu. Kwakuyizikhathi ezinhle ngenkathi kuqhubeka, kepha kubonakala sengathi lezi zikhathi seziphelile.
Yebo, uma ufuna ukuvalelisa ngendlela enkulu, usengalanda i-Ubuntu 17.04 Daily Builds ye-PowerPC yakamuva kulesi sixhumanisi. Ukuthi uma, kuyisistimu yokusebenza ekwakhiweni, ayizinzile (naku-PowerPC ayisoze yaba njalo), ngakho-ke ukusetshenziswa kwayo ezindaweni zomsebenzi akunconyiwe.
Ikhompyutha yabazali bami ineLubuntu
Uthi uzoyeka ukuvuselelwa i-PowerPC kepha futhi nganoma iyiphi i-32-bit architecture?
