A friend has the gen 2 and he has not been able to get it working unfortunately. Also, just yesterday I tried to resize the Mac OS X partition with gparted after I've had Linux and Mac OS X playing nicely. It worked except I cannot boot Linux anymore (Mac OS X still works). Gparted now complains that the OS X partition's magic journaling number is wrong or something like that. Any tips?

Im runnin feisty and there's a catch. The version on ndiswrapper in feisty is outdated - THAT'S why the windows drivers dont work. You need version 1.38 - which means manualling getting them from the site and compiling them. Except that, everything works out-of-the box (or almost like the iSight or microphone or the touchpad) The Wifi works well in my gen2 MacBook. Im runnin feisty and there’s a catch.
