Description: Sony laptop, 14.1" lcd, cd burner, Intel Pentium M 1.6GHz (Centrino), Intel Pro/Wireless 2200bg, Intel 855GM chipset, built-in (Intel) graphics. Has a Memory Stick (pro/duo) reader, but doesn't work under Linux(tested with Suse 9.2 Pro, Mandrake 10.1 and Fedora 3)-chipcard readers not supported. 2 buttons, S1 & S2, both don't work with Linux either. Fn works to some extent-page up/down, home, end works but volume up/down/mute, lcd brightness/contrast/head(video output-lcd/external) selector, suspend-to-disk don't. No problems with CPU frequency scaling, but standby(suspend to RAM) doesn't work. Suspend to disk(hibernate) does work though.
