@mycoma: If you have the wired network working, you can go to "Administration" 
-> "Hardware drivers". You can download the wireless driver from there. 
I don't know which wired network card the MBP uses, but the Macmini4,1 uses the 
Broadcom 57765, which also needs a proprietary driver. You will first need to 
download it on the broadcom website and transfer it with a usb drive (tg3 
driver, you can find it in the downloads section) and get wired networking to 
work. 
Once that's done, you can download the drivers for the wireless and the NVidia 
graphics (as nouveau doesn't seem to work with Macmini)

@Hugo Estopendo
I saw something popping up in the Changelog of the next stable kernel (or one 
of the most recent ones) about sound support for MCP89. Can't remember exactly 
what it was. In exchange for that info, I will now blatantly copy your Lucid 
page on the ubuntu wiki and search/replace for Macmini4,1 ;-)

@ALL: Performance is, as stated above, quite bad. You can also test the drive 
speed with the command "sudo hdparm -t /dev/sda", it should give output like 
this:
/dev/sda:
 Timing buffered disk reads:   24 MB in  3.21 seconds =   7.47 MB/sec

Cheers,
K!
