I avoided to reply because I thought that you could get a better opinion since you asked exactly for a reply from a Mac G4 owner. I had a similar video card on a PC laptop (ati 9000M) and I'm pretty sure that it worked well with the open source driver and compiz, but it was not capable to run the KDE4 effects at all (it was KDE4.0 and it was painful almost for everybody). That laptop of mine now is dead and if you can cope with general suggestions, you can send here your xorg.conf, but I'm not sure your problem is related to KDE4 and that I can help you to solve it.
