boot: Linux video=DVI-I-1:d video=DVI-I-2:1280x1024:@75 video=TV-1:d
This is basically the same as my solution: unused outputs ADC and TV
are disabled, in addition the screen resolution is specified for DVI.

I re-installed Debian Wheezy on my Pro Mac G5 with GeForce FX 5200
Ultra.
I had to boot yaboot with...
boot: Linux video=DVI-I-1:d video=DVI-I-2:1280x1024:@75 video=TV-1:d
This is working right now.

You are right, Aaron. I also have that 'video=TV-1:d' on the kernel
command line.
It comes from /etc/yaboot.conf (so you don't need to write it on every boot):
append= video=TV-1:d
F.ex.:
image=/boot/vmlinux
label=Linux
read-only
initrd=/boot/initrd.img
append=
Risto,
Thanks.
This works. :)
Can you post your xorg.conf?

I took nouveau out of the black list.
I backed up my xorg.conf.
I made a new xorg.conf with these settings.
I rebooted and still have the black screen.
It even kills the terminal from coming up.

I have exactly the same machine. Kernel is 3.1.0-1-powerpc64.
Which output connector are you using, DVI (DVI-I-2) or ADC (DVI-I-1)?

A tad off-topic but, if you can’t get this working and the apps you expect to
run don’t require the muscle of your video card, then you can install your X
clients on the machine and forward their displays to a X server on another
machine on your network. This is what I do for my PowerMac G5
That's very interesting.
Can you guide me to a good document on how to try this?

Long story short.
I installed LinuxMintPPC and had the same problem.
Screen would go dark.
I found a post in the LinuxMint forums.
From yaboot I tried with the following line.
boot: Linux video=DVI-I-1:d video=DVI-I-2:1280x1024:@75 video=TV-1:d
It worked
I don't know if this same thing
