I'm running Kubuntu (Breezy) on my Toshiba 2410 (P4M 1.8ghz/512mb ram).
GPU: is nVidia, works perfectly with X.Org 'nv' driver, works with
offical 'nvidia' driver, but xorg.conf needs a couple of special
settings.
Modem: is some sort of winmodem. Was able to get it working back on
Yoper, no longer these days.
SD Card reader: completly software controlled AFAIK, wont work on
Linux _at_all_.
Wifi, Ethernet, Paralell, USB, Firewire, and everything else: works fine.

Compatability can vary alot from laptop to laptop, so it would be a
very good idea to google it.
