Description: Laptop probably not sold anymore, "old" 2005 model
1,60GHz pentium M, cpufreq driver in official kernel sources
512 Mo 167MHz DDR-SDRAM.
Intel 802801 chipset
i915 graphics, hardware accel. works in linux, though it's not very fast. max 128Mb shared mem. 1280x800 LCD, fb-console@1024x768, tv & monitor out. Supported in linux kernel. Rather use the vesafb driver for the console, and the i915 for AGP, DRI. In X.org, select i810.
Intel pro wireless 2200 b/g: ipw2200 driver, in kernel sources since 2.6.14
Ethernet: Realtek 8139, in kernel sources
AC'97 sound: snd_intel8x0, in k-src
MC'97 modem: snd_intel8x0m (in k-src) + slmodemd
n-in-1 card reader: only SD/MMC works, using SDHCI and a startup script to enable it. driver will be in 2.6.17, in mm patch just before
USB: UHCI + EHCI. Because of a little bug, the USB port on the side of the computer works only as USB2. The 2 other ones work fine.
Firewire: OHCI1394, untested

Only problem, apart from figuring out how to compile your kernel:
How to use suspend/hibernate without a big nice lockup?
