I experienced this bug as well.  I did not run ubiquity, I ran firefox and it froze after a few moments.  The screen is frozen, and the mouse cursor is stuck with the same cursor.
This was done using:
 Lubuntu 14.04.2 (testing)
On a:
 powerbook4_3 (iBook 2 rev. 2)

Title:
  PPC - GUI freezes except for mouse pointer

Status in The Linux Kernel:
  Confirmed
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  During the installation the computer freezes completely except for the
  mouse pointer.  And even that is stuck with whatever shape it happened
  to have at the time it froze.  The steps I have to cause the freeze
  are run Ubiquity to start the installation open a terminal, run
  Ubuntu-bug and let it launch Firefox.  It will freeze every time then.
  Even the consoles (ctrl-alt-f1 etc) are unavailable.  What kind of
  information can I collect and how?
