The onlysolution I have is to put Timbuktu <http://www.netopia.com/en-us/software/products/tb2/> or Apple Remote Desktop <http://www.apple.com/remotedesktop/> on both machines but that will negate the great speed of your new G5. At least you can see what it's up to.
VNC will do basically the same thing for free. But really, as you said, it's a waste of a G5 to have the video, mouse, and keyboard all going over a network cable.
VNC is very usefull and powerful nonetheless, and is available for many different platforms:
I've never been able to get VNC to run between two Macs for more than five minutes without one or both locking up. Consequently I haven't tried it in a year or so. Does it really work now?
It has worked like a champ on Linux and Winblows boxes, though.
