I have debian running on an iMac (the old purple one). Let me know if
you need config files or whatnot. Two problems I have:

1) remapping the keyboard to do dvorak 

2) eth0 stops working periodically /etc/init.d/networking restart
fixes it, so I have a cron job check every 2 min, however this would
not be tollerable on anything other than a convience machine (if any
one has reccomendations I'd love to hear them!).
