@Luca & Israel: You ****should**** be able to get 12.04 installed on a G4 . . . I have an iMac 800 MHz and it had 512 MB RAM and I managed --with online help-- to get the NV driver installed . . . and it works more or less quite well--just issues with "Suspend" not working. You should be able to search the Ubuntu Apple User Forum to find direction, possibly the thread "Testers wanted for PPC 12.04" thread . . . ???
@Israel: I tried to test the 14.04 LiveDVD on the iMac and I vaguely recall that it wasn't too successful, I think I posted here about my results, which I think it was a low resolution screen that wasn't able to fix with Yaboot parameters. And then, the potential lack of NV or fbdev drivers . . . . Possibly the radeon iBook will test out and might be "do-able" without major time consumption . . . .
