Until Ubuntu 12.02 works Ubuntu great on PowerBook (5.8). But Ubuntu 13.xx --> 16.06 (Beta) ist Ubuntu (Graphics) a blank horror.
If you want something with the look of Ubuntu 12.04 you might try Ubuntu MATE 16.04 ppc or as vox suggested Lubuntu 16.04 ppc.
The graphics glitches and freezes are currently being worked on:

With the most recent r300-mesa patch OpenGL runs finally on my PowerMac G5! And with the correct boot parameters there are no more freezes.
