It is highly recommended that you replace the WiFi card with a Broadcom Crystal HD to enable playback of HD videos.

OpenELEC is a fully-featured but highly optimized Linux OS created solely to run XBMC on a range of HTPC systems including the AppleTV 1. The OpenELEC project provides a more set-to-box like XBMC experience than most full-OS distros; with a controlled Linux environment that aims for simplicity, reliability and performance over the ability to tweak/customize the underlying OS.
OpenELEC has an excellent guide for installing on Apple TV 1 here: Installing OpenELEC on AppleTV
