Linux Compatibility of Lenovo IdeaPad G460-i3A


Who knows is it compatible with Linux or not.
And i'm worried about screen dimension of laptop 1366x768, would it work with Xorg without bugs and troubles. So, I'd be happy to hear on all opinions at this issue. I can't decide either to buy this laptop or not.

P.S. is it true that ThinkPad is better then IdeaPad, it's quality higher?


~~~~~~~
My choise is Lenovo ThinkPad Edge 14 (NVPJART) because it is better then IdeaPad.

i don't know what to add. I bought Lenovo ThinkPad instead of IdeaPad. So, I don't know what can I add to this topic.
I can add that Lenovo ThinkPad is better then IdeaPad, it's quality is higher. Lenovo ThinkPad Edge 14 NVPJART is fully compatible with linux. I've installed Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. All devices work out of box, I even have 3D rendering out of box. i tested almost everything what i could - and all was fine. I only didn't test web-cam.
