Gentlemen,
I've finally managed to get Leo working on my PC. Here are the specs:

Asus P5K Pro
Powercolor ATi Radeon X1950 Pro 512mb
2GB DDR2 - OCZ Platinum
SATA HDD, 250GB
IDE DVD Drive

I've used an iPC 10.5.6 distro.
So,
everything's fine, except... this thing runs slow like hell. Seems that no hardware acceleration was detected since I can't even run Aperture. I can't even run my pointer smoothly...

So, please, is there any way to fix this?

I also can't get any image in videos while trying to play with VLC... Please help! :<

you need to install drivers


go to system profiler (apple menu-about this mac-more info), select ur graphics card and see what the device Id is. then, look here:

for a 10.5.6 driver for a crad with that dev ID

should do the trick
