I just ran the LiveCD on my macbook.  I noticed no major issues.  Of
course wifi didn't work but that isn't a surprise.  The LCD wasn't
native res but that's also expected.  I didn't try suspend/resume but
I doubt it'll work without Xorg 7.3.

What are the chances of having Xorg 7.3?  That'll allow native res
without the 915resolution hack.  Also 2.6.23 has the right /sys
entries so ACPI modules autoload.  that might be nice.

Freezing packages so we can actually release 014 is probably a better
idea though.
