>From my reading, the only Mac linuxes that are recent, are linuxppc and 
YellowDog.  About once a eyar for the last few years I think about 
doing linux and explore the mac distros, although I've not put any on 
ever ;)

Linuxppc wasn't very complete and is now defunct, Yellowdog last I 
looked was pretty robust, although I'm not sure if the 1400 is 
supported or not, this flavor is AFAIK going to be your only hope for 
recent/robust/current/ongoing support.

HTH.
