You also might want to dig around to see how folks are getting sound to work for other projects on RPI.  I know there is some confusion about HDMI sound out vs. headphone jack, etc.  As for newer distributions, I think that the current debian squeeze distro (floating point) is the way to go.  Also do some reading about the *supported* overclock config changes you can perform -- but be careful to only use the supported configs, there is no safety net against the unsupported ones.

Congrats on the working port!! :-)
