Problem solved! Thanks for all the suggestions everyone; I either
tried them all or was just about to when the mystery was solved. Turns
out the video card needed a different driver.


AFAIK, I believe all drivers for ATI cards are included in the OS X, Tiger on, so a fresh install of the system for your use of the G5 probably would have solved the problem. I wouldn't want to use an installation by another user / previous owner. Who knows what else they did to it ...

Glad you solved the issue.
