I was curious to see if could be done. I made and X11-256 following
Jeremy Huddleston instructions from an earlier X11 list answer, but I
could not get both Gnome and Kde to run , one per server. It would not
run? I guess I don't know enough about running applications on 2
servers. I prefer to have only gnome program run on gnome and Kde
applictions on kde.

If so how do you accomplish this?
You could do so by setting up two X servers - see the list archive
for details; this question was already answered earlier today - but
why? GNOME applications will run under the KDE desktop environment
(and vice versa) correctly. There is no benefit to running both at
once.
Incidentally, there is no such thing as an "intel g5 imac". The G5
was a marketing name for the PowerPC 970 - your computer is either
an Intel iMac or an iMac G5, not both.
