Graphics Adapter

I use the Intel Onboard Graphics Adapter. And it just works (including Mesa/DRI)

Sound

The soundadapter, an Intel HD Audio onboard card is supported by alsa.

Wireless

Its an Intel 3945, and with the Intel Wireless drivers, it just works.

IDE/SATA

The IDE controller is called AHCI, and is only supported (IMHO) since 2.6.12, it really works nice.
To get suspension working, use a 2.6.19 or newer kernel.
