So, getting back to the OP, not too much to add, but, for us in PPC in >12.04, we need to add an xorg.conf file or otherwise strange behaviors manifest . . . GUI freeze, clicking on stuff does nothing, etc. Don't know if that would help in this case . . . .

I totally sympathize with your situation, and admire your steadfast determination (in the face of huge odds) to succeed with PPC. I doubt I would have continued in the face of such odds.

None of my testing was with PPC. I did perform two installs on Mac OS X MacBook machines, and the systems installed there are not free of problems, but at least the install went okay.
