HP DV6000 series. Sound works fine, I haven't tried the modem or sensors.
There were serious problems with the K7 kernels, which I reported as a bug.
I ended up reformatting the hard drive and use it now as a pure Windows XP
system, with Cygwin (which means I still work largely in xterms). I'm going
to try installing Ubuntu on it when I get a chance, but that won't be for at
least a couple of weeks.
Knoppix worked flawlessly on it, with the 486-series kernel. Debian would
freeze whenever the video resolution changed.
