Thanks, Jerome. I had scoured some of those, and now looking at the ones I had not found already, it appears that this hardware is just too new to be supported by Debian specifically, and Linux in general (problems with wireless, video, audio, suspend). I know Ubuntu 8.whateverwasjustreleasedlastweek mostly works (no audio, ndiswrapper required, sleep/suspend issues), so I may just have to live with that for a while. Bummer.
