Hi all,
I tested Scott´s kernel image on my iMac G5 and it did indeed not solve
the nouveau issues.
Scott± thanks for sharing your newly built image!
Regards,
Jeroen
Admittedly I am a kernel compilation newbie however this may not be
the only issue. After changing the page size and recompiling the
kernel:

The display is still quite problematic.
