Apparently the 2 cores can't all work on OS X for D620. Something with its ACPI controller I guess. Disabling one is BIOS or adding "cpus=1" flag, it works like a charm. Try it with cpus=2 flag at boot prompt, the kernel panics in a heart beat. So, live with "Core Solo", shall we?
The other thing is the SigmaTel 9200. Patched twice with HDA Patcher 1.15, one with a downloaded dump, the other with the dump generated by xubuntu, both ended up with kernel panic. Had to CPR the machine by doing "-s" at boot prompt to drop into single user mode, then /sbin/mount -uw / to enable writing, then just dump the whole /System/Library/Extensions/AppleHDA.kext/Contents and /System/Library/Extensions.cache. Reports on working 9200 on D620 are plenty, what's wrong with mine? Maybe my kernel is too old (10.4.6) for Patcher 1.15.

Tor on Dapper - beware of the old version in Universe
It's no problem adding tor and privoxy on Dapper. But it didn't work. If turn on Tor in Firefox by Tor button, every request just returned with "domain name not resolved". After taking a look of /var/log/tor/log, it says something about version too old. Well, that's very true according to this page:
https://wiki.torproject.org/noreply/TheOnionRouter/TorOnDebian
So I added new source following that to apt/sources.list. Sure enough after upgrading tor works like a charm.
