The Gnome battery status panel applet reported that I was running on battery at 0% charge when I was on mains power with a fully chaged battery. '$ cat /proc/pmu/battery_0' showed the right information so I have no idea what's wrong there.
Gnome behaved erratically after waking from sleep. Mouse became very jerky, windows didn't refresh properly and eventually it seemed to completely lock up. I was able to switch to a text console and restart Gnome.
I've reverted to my previous kernel for now. Turns out it's not hand built as previously stated, it's actually 2.4.25-ben1.
Did I install the wrong kernel package? Perhaps there are additional packages I need to update or install?

the stock debian 2.6 kernel should work fine
works on my clamshell ibook, which is close enough to identical to yours
you may just need to install the apm_emu module, the snd-powermac module and... well that should be about it. modem support is now in the kernel, not a module as for 3d acceleration it should also be fine as its more an XFree thing than kernel

Since upgrading Gnome I see the odd warning about services which require a 2.6 kernel to work properly (eg. HAL I think, though I don't have the machine handy to check). I'm running a custom built 2.4 kernel at the moment with which everything works - sleep, internal modem, 3D acceleration, etc.
Does anybody know if there's a 2.6 kernel package I can apt-get which will work with this hardware configuration? If not perhaps a link to a tutorial explaining how to build a suitable 2.6 kernel?
