It runs ok. Not as quick as OS X, but reasonably well. Since Apple killed PPC the desktop Linux side of things has been a wasteland.
What Linux for my old Mac G4?

Hi guys,
Well I managed to get Ubuntu 8.04 running, but have ran into graphics problems, as it would not go above or indeed give any options for anything but 800+600.
I know its old ATI Rage is capable of 1680+1050 as I get that with my old Apple 10.1 OS
So far Linux is useless at such resolution, and 10.1 cannot support any usable web browser.
