No: the original Lombard 400's had DVD drives, as well as a hardware DVD

I found out what the problem was with X. The iBookDV install guide on
hadess.net turns out to be a little out of date. You should not put the
"novideo" line in your yaboot.conf, and then aty128fb will work correctly,
even under an old (2.2.x) kernel.
