For those interested, my fave new distro was just released: Mint 9
(ubuntu derivative).
Works great out of the box on Macbook Pro (4,1). Add the "pommed"
package to get your keyboard backlight functioning well. NVIDIA drivers
and Broadcom wireless card support are included, but you need to install
them via the Administration Tools -> hardware drivers in order to
"agree" to the license terms of the proprietary drivers.
MacbookPro, reFit, and Mint 9 ... Excellent!!! Literally 45 minutes to
complete functionality, with no issues with sound card, bluetooth or usb.
Their site seems to be getting flogged pretty heavily, so if you're
downloading I'd recommend a torrent.
Cheers,
Doug
