I have 2.6.8 on my PowerBook G4 and it works fine so probably it's a different problem.
(I also have Ubuntu 5.04 with kernel 2.6.10 and it works fine too)

I'm not an expert but you may try to boot from your cd and, when asked, digit install video=ofonly.

Ah!  typing "linux -video=ofonly" did the trick!

Now I've got to figure out how to make that a permanent option
(with LILO on x86, I know how, but macs?)

And how to get X to recognize a USB mouse.  I suspect I did something
wrong during install.
