Yes, I have gotten it to work on 64-bit x86 Mac mini (probably a bit more 
recent than what you describe but I can’t check exact model now as I’m 
traveling).

If you are lucky, it will boot directly, on either machine. Likely it will be 
very slow - one should immediately edit the config/managed/runtime to eliminate 
the ps2 driver (comment it out or delete). If it won’t boot, it’s probably the 
graphics driver or ps2 driver. One can permanently disable ps2 by editing the 
corresponding config file and building a custom image. To force fallback to the 
fb_boot_drv one has to edit the driver_manager and recompile, unfortunately.

I haven’t even tried BlueTooth, perhaps the Genode developers can say more 
about the status of BlueTooth on Genome?

Either one I imagine, but the more recent is probably closer to what worked for 
me.

Hope it helps and eager to hear if you get it going.
