Known limitation: The ATI Mobility Radeon X1600 reaches OpenGL ES 2.0 only. Hyprland 0.50 and later needs 3.0, so stock Omarchy's desktop won't start. Software rendering or a GLES 2.0 fork of Hyprland may work; results will tell.

Research notes (unverified)

64-bit Core 2 Duo CPU with 32-bit EFI firmware: the stock installer needs a 32-bit EFI boot shim.
Draft-n Atheros AR5418 Wi-Fi (ath9k). The iSight camera reports "no firmware loaded" and needs firmware extracted from macOS.
Apple's identification page no longer lists 2006–2007 MacBook Pros; release names follow the size and season convention used for later models.
