I run Gentoo on my PWS 433au.  It seems to be quite well supported.
I tried installing Debian at the time, but had issues getting the
installation
CD to boot, so I gave up and went with Gentoo and never looked back.
I imagine Debian's fixed whatever the problem was nowadays -- that
was a couple of years ago.
