Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-ati

System: PowerMac G4/800 "Quicksilver", ATI Radeon RV200 QW, Format 17"
TFT

After the update from 9.04 to 9.10, X did not come up any more.  Instead
of the X screen, the TFT showed single pixels, sometimes a blue line,
and a greenish shade.  Switching back to the text console was
imnpossible.  The system was still alive, though; I could reach it via
ssh from an other box and reboot.

I then removed the packages xserver-xorg-video-ati and xserver-xorg-
video-radeon, and installed xserver-xorg-video-
ati_6.12.1-0ubuntu2_powerpc.deb and xserver-xorg-video-
radeon_6.12.1-0ubuntu2_powerpc.deb, and now X starts again.

==> there is a bug in xserver-xorg-video-(ati|radeon) coming with 9.10
