I have a first-gen iMac G5 20-inch that had video issues that looked very much 
like that, at one point. I resolved them by replacing all the capacitors on the 
logic board. It took me several resolder attempts before I got all 25 caps 
properly soldered, but the iMac's video display now is as stable and almost as 
pretty as it was when new. ("Almost" refers to fact that the smokey white line 
across the bottom from the left side to about mid-point -- which I have seen on 
a lot of G5 iMacs -- was unaffected by all the work.) :^}
