I've got a 1ghz superdrive, that I tried to install Mandrake 9.1 ppc on. Everything worked fine until I tried to setup the X server during the install. I cannot get the resolution and my monitor type s to work. Either I have to choose a lower resolution which looks horrendous because it puts black bars on the side of my screen, or else the thing just doesn't work at all.

Any one have any luck with Mandrake 9.1 on a new 15 inch? If so, what are the settings that worked for you.

The ironic part is that the screen DURING the install is at the right resoltion and works perfectly.
15" Macbook Pro 1.83 2 GB RAM
Blackbook 13.3 Powerhouse 2 GB RAM
MacMini Dual Core 2 GB RAM (Sadly running Windows Most of the time)
Numerouse Workstations running windows and Linux. Sorry don't have the specs, I don't pay much attention to them anymore. :)
