Getting right to the point...
My iMac G5 (running 10.4.11) freezes at the blue screen, after recognizing the mouse, but before the login window. Some form of energy saver must be working because after the blue screen dims, moving the mouse will brighten it.
Steps I've taken:
Hardware test - everything passed (RAM, logic board, airport, display, etc...)
Zeroed the computer (7 times) and fresh reinstall
I CAN boot up in Safe Mode, Single User Mode, and Verbose mode. I can boot from CD, Knoppix CD, and into Target Disk mode (thank god for this MacBook I'm on now...)
Here's the system log (I've edited in comments and out personal info):
