Two other possible solutions could be to try CrunchBang (very undemanding Debian-based distro) or LXLE which is to Lubumtu LTS more or less as Mint is to Ubuntu. These distros gllow easy access to the main Debian and Ubuntu repositories respectively, so you can pick and choose from the vat array of appications out there.

Alternatively, you might look into the range of "Puppy" linuxes.

Have fun!

Greetings; newbie here!
  Old PowerBook PPC G3, 500 Mhz, 650 Mb ram; Mac PowerBook 'Pismo'.
  Lubuntu resurrected it, but for how long?!
I've tried to update, twice, to newer, supported version 13.10, with bad effects: white screen - without the ability to toggle to terminal. Would an upgrade not have backward support for the graphics on this old thing (purchased in 2000 AD), or is this not to be expected? Could this finally be the twilight for this old machine? If so, is this old machine finally ready for the heap? Recycleable in any way?
Many thanx! - Michael
