The latest version of Ubuntu, 13.04, has a mac version of the installation media. It is 64-bit, and should work better than just a standard version of Ubuntu. Click here to see the list of downloads for Ubuntu 13.04. Download the one that says amd64+mac.

There are several guides I have read that suggest using rEFIt or rEFInd to manage the EFI booting on Macbooks, however, I was successful with just using the 13.04 amd64+mac version without any other software or configuration needed.
