I can confirm that I get the software rasterizer on current Precise,
running on a PowerBook G4 with a M7 (r100) card. I think this is because
the atyfb frambuffer driver is loaded (compiled into the kernel) and it
blocks KMS from working, which is needed for the gallium mesa driver.
However, when I
I've played with this a bit (after some updates to lucid) and I found
that I don't need an xorg.conf anymore. It seems like all that is needed

at least point me in the
Disabling KMS worked, although I needed to provide my own xorg.conf
file. (Otherwise, the screen goes crazy)
For those who are trying to fix this issue on their own computer, here's
what I put in /etc/modprobe.d/radeon-kms.conf :
options radeon modeset=0

It's almost certainly due to it being powerpc architecture. You could
see if disabling KMS makes any difference.
Beyond that, ppc is not an architecture we put a lot of time into
