Fritz, I am sorry to hear about this... I wish PPC was more supported, but I am not entirely sure what else you can do. There is of course the kernel bisection route... but that is a LONG process of checking many builds of the kernel to see where the problem started... You'd have to talk to the Ubuntu Kernel team for more on how to do this, as I am no kernel dev.
