Unforgiven1:
linux on Laptops
that site it a good resource for seeing what will run on your laptop, if someone else has already written a review for it that is. Just look up your laptop and read what the person said. I submitted a page for the HP ze5170 awhile back...so if you get a distro to work on your laptop and it isn't on that site, make sure you submit a page to them for it.

Unforgiven: Man thats the problem, I am using a OEM system so the only thing I can look for is similaritys... Normally when U buy one of this PC's they only but the label of the store but in this case when I look in the manual it doesn't have any information about the real manufacter only a model number :( I searched in the net and found other shops that used this "kit" (I don't know what else to call it) but no link to the original manufacter :(
