Kernel (uname -r):	2.4.24-emp_2424sw
Distribution:	Fedora Core 2

Works well: USB 2.0 (most USB devices seem to work fine), wireless, ethernet jack, monitor dongle, USB cradle (makes laptop into a USB mass storage devices and charges battery at the same time), sound card

Some problems with: touchpad (synaptics driver), direct rendering (fast 3D in Xorg has some problems), USB mice

Doesn't work at all: hibernate / suspend / sleep

I got mine from http://emperorlinux.com/ . It came pre-installed as a dual-boot with Windows XP Home and Fedora Core 2. I've since made extra space in Linux by removing Windows.
