Hi, I know that is quite delayed response but here I go, I have the same laptop running Windows 7, OpenSuSE 11.3 and Mac OS X 10.6.7 (Supend, Remote Control, biometric reader and video acceleration aren't working, everything else is working pretty well), to be honest I can't remember right now which distro I used. But if you want can send me a PM and I can give further instructions.

 

P.S. I'm from Mexico, so we can do all this in spanish.

 

Regards
