Did you try also the real debian on it :
(cd booting)
http://cdimage.debian.org/pub/cdimage-testing/daily/powerpc/current/debian-testing-powerpc-netinst.iso
this is our distro installed
debian-testing-powerpc-netinst.iso from 3 november 2005
(net booting)
http://people.debian.org/~luther/d-i/images/daily/powerpc64/netboot64/
or only the unoficial ppc64 stuff ?
Also, since the debian kernel has matroxfb built-in, it would also be helpfull
if you could try booting the graphical installer, and reported success or
failure on it :
http://people.debian.org/~luther/d-i/images/daily/powerpc64/netboot64/
And report if it worked or not.

This is i belive an X.org bug, and you should file a bugreport against the
xorg-xserver package, by calling :
reportbug xserver-xorg
and following instructions.
BTW, i would be interested in the /proc/cpuinfo of that box, could you provide
it ?
cat /proc/cpuinfo
processor : 0
cpu : POWER5 (gr)
clock : 1656.384000MHz
revision : 2.0
processor : 1
cpu : POWER5 (gr)
clock : 1656.384000MHz
