Vaio VGN-NR320FH | 2008-06 (right now with Kernel 2.6.27) | Intel GMA965/X3100 (xf86-video-intel driver) | Intel audio with Alsa | dunno but works out of the box | Atheros AR5006EG/AR242x (madwifi 0.9.4.3844-2) | No | acpi_cpufreq, sony-laptop | Untested | Memory Stick might work | Fn Keys with sony-laptop and sonypid. Using vga option in kernel line in grub might give problems with resolution. Pretty cool Laptop, everything works out of the box except FN keys for which I needed to do some research. |
