Laptop tracking software

[techlist at pathfinder.phys.utk.edu]

Hello,
I am wondering if there is laptop tracking software included with Fedora. I am 
currently using Fedora 8. If there is no such thing in the distro, what would 
anyone recommend for a third-party F/OSS  software? 
What I meant is a software that can track the laptop whereabouts, which would 
be useful in the case that it gets stolen, etc. So there should be a way to 
retrieve the information from a different computer.

Thanks for any help.
