HAL/g-p-m should support the MacBook {,Pro} out of the box, and
without pommed as far as the LCD backlight and sound support goes,
though AFAIK it doesn't use ACPI.
And for the record, the GNOME people did not want to integrate with
pommed other than by having me code up the whole thing into HAL, which
is NOT what I wanted to do. I'm still open to integration with the
GNOME things, and the DBus notifications & interface are there for a
reason. The GNOME people are free to pick up the DBus notifications on
the system bus; don't ask me why they didn't do it.
