I've got Haiku booting on MBPro with ATA bus manager (not the default IDE
one). I haven't tried Marcus's new patch from last week. Keyboard and
mouse works relatively well. The biggest problem I have (other than no
wireless) is that VESA doesn't detect the proper screen resolution, so I'm
limited to 1152x834 (or similar) instead of 1440x900 ((ATI x1600 chipset).
Cheers.
