I noticed the GPU was set to PCI mode however I did not set

force PCI mode. Has there been a change to kernel in Debian to force
this by default? If so it looks like it is breaking on certain G5
machines. I am attaching bothe dmesg files for review.

Thanks and sorry for the previous garbled email.
Hrm... this is odd. I would expect PCI mode to work and AGP to be
busted to be honest. Can you provide the complete log ? I wonder
if it's trying to enable the PCIe bypass high aperture and hits the
Radeon address limit...
