Hi Ahmed,

to be honest, why you ask on the FEDORA-LAPTOP list to run a Laptop on
"connatural" Distribution and NOT on the lists owner?

First, I have no experience with that laptop BUT if ONE linux runs on
it, most of the also do so, too.
If there is a Gentoo and/or Kubuntu works (with all kind of embemmed
Hardware?!) then I'm pretty sure that a RHEL 5.1 (which is based on
Fedora Core 6 afaik) will also run ...

Just my five cents ...
