I did it! I finally got Xubuntu on my iMac G3! Wireless works too. The version is 7.04, I couldn't get 7.10 working before. I will try some of my other devices I have laying around once I get my access point shipped from ibuydirect.ca (Evil people have to confirm and we didn't get the call so we have been emailing them back and forth for a week now!) and get around to finding webcam drivers.

Make sure you get the Alternate Installation....it has more options during the install process than the Live CD version:

Go into the flavor of Ubuntu that you want, and then click on the "ports" directory for the flavor you've chosen.
