So, how is it with a G5 and Leopard? Are there any known issues that

Are you using your G5 Power Macs with Tiger or with Leopard?
Might the issue be fixed if I clean out the dust, which I presume
must be there
after all these years (I didn't look too deep into it yet)?
Thanks in advance,

It does not sound like strange behavior to me that a later OS release
might use more resources and generate more heat, so the fans would
kick on occasionally. It is just normal operation. Did you expect
your fans to never speed up while using your G5? The usage does not
have to be at 100% of CPU load to get the fans to speed up.
As Valter wrote, it is never a bad idea to clean the inside of any of
your computers.
