Personnally, I run a Suse 9.0 on my HP Pavilion ZT3000. The wide screen
display works fine (there is even a Radeon driver with 3D support in the
distribution), DVD and CD burning are ok, touch pad ok, centrino ok (with
the Linuxant commercial driver). I highly recommend this distribution for
its very good hardware support and ease of installation.
The only piece of hardware that does not work under Linux is the integrated
SD card reader...
