I have a Powerbook G4 PPC running Lubuntu 12.04. Newer versions of Lubuntu don't work. Does anyone know of a linux distro that's more up to date that'll work on this laptop? Thanks.

Have you tried debian?
Have a look at distrowatch to see what distributions are available for the PPC.
Updates for Debian PPC ended a long time ago.
ubuntu or mint
Hi, I'm super late replying to this (haven't logged in in nearly 8 years!) but this stuck out for me.
You'll find Debian PPC is definitely still alive and officially supported:
http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/...werpc/iso-dvd/
In fact I changed to Debian PPC after mainstream Ubuntu PPC support ended:

Similarly MintPPC exists, but doesn't look very official:
