So far this weekend, I've gotten my USB scanner, video viewing with my ATI AIW 128, DVD playback, and i2c bus reading all working on my best debian box. I need to get video (and audio) capture working and I need to tune the DVD playback. Next week I should be getting my ATA133 controller and then I'll be able to set up my RAID. Last week I saw that CompUSA was having a sale on 80gb hard drives; they were selling them for $70 after rebates so I got 3 of them to build a level 1 RAID.
