I dualboot Lubuntu 13.10 and MorphOS 3.3 on my 1.67GHz PowerBook G4 and it's nice and responsive, I haven't managed to get hardware accelerated 3D working with the radeon xorg driver for the 9700M though.  Do you happen to have a working xorg.conf with functioning 3D for video cards that use the radeon driver?

Could you ask your question in the Apple Users area of the Ubuntu forums: http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=328 ?

There are a lot of users with Lubuntu on PowerBook G4.

New Sam460ex Ubuntu 12.04 installer by Spectre660
 
 Supports Radeon HD cards up to HD4000 series and the console output via the Sam460ex onboard graphics card.
 This one allows you to install Ubuntu using the onboard sm502 graphics card so you dont need a second computer or serial cable.
 
 Download and support: http://forum.hyperion-entertainment.biz/viewtopic.php?f=52&p=24052#p24052

Kernel 3.13-rc6 for the Sam460ex( Lite): Sam460ex-3.13.0-rc6.tar.gz

TLP works on PPC Linux, it really brings down power consumption a lot so all is not lost. :)

Ubuntu:
Code: [Select]
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:linrunner/tlp
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install tlp tlp-rdw
sudo service tlp start
http://linrunner.de/en/tlp/tlp.html

Thanks for your hint! :)
