Title:
Xorg + Unity/ Compiz broken in 13.04 PPC Live cd
Status in xserver-xorg-video-ati package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Booting without any extra parameters gets the general strange
colors+pseudo 8 bit problem.
So I tried the old standby, booting with live
video=radeonfb:1024x768-32@60 which will usually get something
running. This got me a black screen that had popup notifications
(Ubuntu 13.04 had a critical error, and network not connected). So I
ctl-alt-F2'd into terminal, and ran ubuntu-bug, copied the URL for
this, and then startx. Startx got me to a desktop background, with the
desktop icons on it (install ubuntu and some information folder). I've
got no Unity interface, no window stuff, but through the folder I was
able to find xterm, and do what I need to do so I can make the bug
report. The colors are good at least!

iBook)
Lemme know if you need me to do anything, I'm certain I can reproduce this.
