Hello, I have successfully installed iDeneb v1.3 (10.5.5) on my computer with the following specs:

 

CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 3.0Ghz

Mobo: BFG Tech nForce 680i

GFX: nVidia GeForce 8800GT 256MB

Net: [Onboard ethernet] & Linksys WMP54G v4.0 (rt2500 version)

Audio: Onboard Azalia audio and AC97 audio.

 

I have two problems with it:

1) The driver for my wifi card doesn't work, but was reported to work in 10.4,

3) the ethernet card is not detected (2 ports), and

2) My audio doesn't work

 

It boots flawlessly and runs fast, but I can't use it for much without an internet connection, as neither the ethernet nor the wifi works, and I can't do audio editing. Can anyone recommend me a version to install? I was thinking I would look for iATKOS 10.4.x and install that. Any help anyone can provide would be greatly, greatly appreciated. Also would you be able to *ahem* direct me to a site that has a torrent/dl?

 

P.S. I am a linux user/developer so I am not CLI shy, and long processes don't bother me if I think they'll work. As long as it gets it running I'm fine. I made a deal with a friend of mine (Apple fanboy) that I could get OSX running on my PC if he would get Kubuntu 9.04 (when it comes out) on his mac

search after drivers for your Hardware no other distro will make your hardware work automaticly

 

I wasn't meaning autodetection *cough*like Ubuntu*cough* but more of what version has the best driver compatability. I think I have it worked out though. Im going to use uphuck 10.4.9 v1.4i r3. Tiger supports my wifi card, and I realized I checked two audio drivers, which are conflicting now. AppleAzaliaAudio I have heard works on my mobo.
