One of those people is Jarod Wilson, of justifiable Fedora MythTV
install fame (who is now a collaborator on MythDora).
One thread is titled "Intel 945GM graphics ok?" and another good one
is "Mac Mini Core Solo as FE/BE Combo?"
My reading is that running Fedora & MythTV on the Mac mini works
well. Note that the thread is about the Core Solo (not Duo) and that
it's running Fedora (not OS X).
