Can you identify which machine you're talking about more specifically?
Processor and speed would help.  If it's the quad G5, I am pretty sure
that the "pm72" driver is NOT the right one, because that's for older
systems; I was told in IRC once that a fix for those was committed VERY
recently to Linus's kernel, but it may not have propagated.
