I'm afraid driver version 1.4.4 does not solve the problem that G5s  
have with MOTU firewire hardware. I've been using this version over  
the past few weeks and have still been having major problems with my  
828 MkII.

Reseting the MOTU hardware will temporarily  help:-

never using the MOTU with a firewire hard drive  helps a lot

and removing the
  com.motu.FireWireAudio
  folder from /Users/Username/Library/Preferences
seems to sort things out
