A little bit old laptop, good performance.

Internal network interface Intel chip.

Installation is NO problem.

Tricky part is nVIDIA chip. It works XF86 (woody and sarge) X.org (etch)
Display is NOT recognized without "IgnoreEDID option".

dri works, with selected nVIDIA driver. http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_archive.html

XF86, 7174 works,
X.org 7174 does NOT work, no side effect, blank screen (ctl-alt-bk works.)
7184 works,
9631 does NOT work, same as 7174
8776 does NOT work, (ctl-alt-bk does NOT work, no way to kill.)
9746 does NOT support chipset.
