Really I have not tried much, for my laptop HP pavilion dv6636nr the
drivers for display card  is there in RHEL5.1.

But I have loaded Fedora 8 and working ok.

I can work with soft touch buttons, webcam, sound cards etc.

Only problem is openoffice, with graphics it hangs some time. Feel
openoffice 2.3 may have some bugs.

Suspend mode also works excellent.
