Don't mix PowerPC and PowerMac. PowerMacs rely on pmud. But PReP and CHRP
machines can be more PC-like that you'd like them to in some cases :)
They don't really have an apm bios, but who knows... They certainly don't
have a PMU and don't use pmud.
I've been told there's an IBM PReP thinkpad out there. What does this box
use for power management ? It's own mecanism ?
