It’s said to be performing quite well (“faster than normal ubuntu”) with KDE4.1.

The process:

Use the alternate kubuntu-8.04.1 release for powerpc.

You need to manually install the latest test kernel for PSUbuntu developers.

Miguel is using petitboot.

Edit your sources.list with these repositories:

deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ intrepid main universe restricted multiverse
deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ intrepid-security universe main multiverse restricted
deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ intrepid-updates universe main multiverse restricted

deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ intrepid-backports universe main multiverse restricted
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-members-kde4/ubuntu intrepid main

Finally enter

sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop

in a terminal
