There's a little extra 'screen' that
spills off my display.

for reference, here is my XF86Config-4 file. It's a hack of several
ones, but, with the exception of the screen spilling over, works.

The modes should be "1152x768". The newer titanium powerbooks have
this higher resolution, but this first edition only did 1152x768

For the g4-400, I'd suggest going with a depth of 16 and the
aforementioned 1152x768. That will get you DRI for the all-important
fast GL screen savers.
