I tried the Linux for the dreamcast out probably a year ago when it came out. It worked fine for me, I was able to browse the web (have the broad band adaptor) and whatnot
to be honest, it sucks, and even with the VGA converted I never got X in anything besides 640x480 which is way too small. I also didn't like how they did the /etc directory, linking just about every file in there to the cdrom, and therefor wasting quite a few inodes, which are important on the Dreamcast because there's not space in that inital ram disk....
I didn't have to do anything special to get it working.
