Thanks for the debug output, it helps. Problems on your machine:
 - the PowerBook5,8 uses a Geyser keyboard, which wasn't known to
   pommed (I didn't know what model of keyboard was used on this
   machine, it's one of the machines that haven't been tested yet)

 - the mouseemu virtual keyboard should be picked up, but isn't for an
   unknown reason...

 - the keyboard backlight fails for whatever reason, I don't have the
   hardware to test that part of the code, so I'll leave that up to
   Yves-Alexis (Corsac, Cc:ed)

The first problem is fixed in SVN; for the second one, I need you to
grab the current SVN trunk, build it and run pommed -d again.

Corsac will take care of the third problem.

What do you mean by "it hangs" ? gpomme doesn't detach from the
console when it's running, you have to send it to the background
explicitely.


Thanks for the report, it helped :)
