Any widescreen z60t linux users out there? And, if so, can you share you experiences?

I'm looking for a laptop to replace my 1st gen MacBook (1.83GHz CD). This will run linux exclusively. The x60 is nice and portable...but I think I would miss the widescreen.

Well, I had Ubuntu 6.10 and Suse 10.2 running on my Z60m, most things worked out of the box.

What didn't work? (assuming "most" does not equal "all")

Sorry about my bad choice of words.

Till today, everything works for me so far. What distro are you planning to use? I prefer OpenSuse 10.2 if you're happy with YaST slow performance otherwise Ubuntu 6.10.
