Today's OpenBios commit (r6294) seems to improve things a lot. I can
now boot ubuntu-6.06.1-desktop-powerpc.iso (a live CD) and it gets as
far as starting X and the usual Gnome desktop session. Which is a
great deal further than a week ago. Amazing work!
The Gnome session is hard to use because it appears that the display is
somehow spread out horizontally over 3 times as many pixels as it should
be and thus the guest X display is wrapped around 3 times horizonally.
(If that makes any sense). In the vertical dimension it seems OK though.
