oh ok, It is the same thing I've done starting from a debian 2.6.8 
kernel config file.

It seems that sleep function is broken in 2.6.x  you can only turn off 
backlight but you cannot put the mac to sleep. I use pbbuttonsd, it 
works very well turning on and off the screen, but I cannot activate 
sleep function.

Does someone has some advice?
