I actually installed Ubuntu on a ppc based mac. Though I couldn't start the desktop, I could open firefox via an XServer. It works well without any of the issues I have mentioned above.
Makes me wonder what could be the problem with my ppc board. One obvious difference that I see is the cpu used in either systems are different. My mac ppc used G5 where as my board uses e500v2 core. Also since error messages are not getting displayed, I suspect this could be an issue with the gtk+ library ( pango??, cairo??). I wish I knew how to go about debugging this??
