Mac OS X 10.4.11 on an 800 MHz Quicksilver

I'm guessing it's this.

Feb 10 05:32:14 localhost kernel[0]: ApplePMU::PMU forced shutdown, cause = -122

And a -122 is a fairly generic code that indicates a "power-related issue".

You can try resetting the PMU.

And reseat the power connectors.
Make sure the fan(s) are working.
Make sure there isn't any dust/dirt clogging things.

If the problem persists, swapping out the power supply might be worth a shot.
