Yes, you can update even if there's trouble with the graphics card.

 - make sure you're using 0.5.2 , not 0.5
 - in the initial menu you see when booting from the install/upgrade
CD, choose the "install/upgrade in text mode" option
 - as you are upgrading from 0.4, you'll need to use the 'upgradeany'
trick -- follow the notes in
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/XS_Installing_Software

yum may work but it'll be rather tricky -- you need to know the
correct repositories, and it's 100% untested. For this upgrade, I
really don't recommend it.

About those problems:
- Have you checked the repair guide (in the wiki...)? It has answers
to most common problems...
- Have you tested (sound/camera) from the OpenFirmWare hardware
diagnosis tool? (see the wiki for 'cheat codes')
- If the problems are not discussed in the repair guide, you can post
about that on [email protected] with good information about the
problems. The experts are on that list and will help diagnose the
problems...

abrazos,
