I just booted latest kubuntu daily lucid_desktop_amd64.iso from the hard disk (using a custom entry for grub2) with the extra option "blacklist=vga16fb" and... heck, it boot so fast(er) :-) And the .iso is so much faster than my kubuntu 9.10 box.

* Sound works, volume up/down and display brightness up/down function keys as well.
* Ethernet (I am writing from within kubuntu lucid right now). I guess installing mactel-support will roll the rest.
* Bluetooth detects devices, pairing works -and it works FAST, the way it should (did not test further than this) :D

I don't more time to spend on this. But I though I'll let you know...

Regards
