Technically, the video is supported, but the keyboard isn't. This is
probably just a matter of someone spending some time on it. Linux does
work with the IOPs well enough to have ADB working. If anyone want to
work on this, please drop me a line. I wish I had time to play with it,
myself.

It's different. There are two different common configurations of
SCSI on the Q950. The on-board SCSI should work (esp0 & esp1).
We're not running it through the IOPs, though, which might be
possible for much more performance. I haven't really looked at
that. Apple also had a separate PDS card with SCSI on it, though,
and that's not supported.
