I don't know anyone using them in a Mac, but it certainly should work.

The IMSTT is in a lot of maybe two-year-old macs as a third party card. I've got a Voodoo in mine. What's the nv driver for? I think some of those might apply.

I'll need to make architecture specific debhelper files. I will make the appropriate changes for PowerPC. I'll have the more interesting patches in a bit.
