Keynote is not really designed to on Macs with only 8meg vram. 
Because of the way it is designed, a 32meg card or above is really
needed.

Also, have a look at this KB article:

<http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61831>

It specifically mentions a couple of cards that are not compatible
with Keynote.  Since Keynote heavily relies on OpenGL for its effects,
it will not work.  Lombards unfortunately have a Rage LT Pro, which is
not officially supported.
