i have been testing teh latest version. One thing, the other day i again 
tried one of benh's kernels and pmud seemed to work perfectly. It would 
sleep and wake up very quickly and didn't crash. Problem was though 
after installing it i couldn't get my USB modem to work, and DRI wasn't 
enabled. I have last years (may 2001)ibook2. The first one released, 
luckily with the hard modem.
