What hardware are you testing on? I'm running 13.04 lubuntu on an ibook g4, most everything works very well, like wireless.
I do have the pseudo 8 bit issue on the live CD and the install if I don't do the fix (it escapes me, but I'll find it if you need it - I'm on my phone). It's a different graphics issue than previous, you can see more than 12.10. Ubuntu doesn't have the pseudo 8 bit issue, though. I'm still quite a beginner when it comes to testing, I'm learning all I can to help make ppc architecture more usable.
