I am using a ThinkPad R40 2722-CDG "Centrino" (Pentium M @ 1.4 GHz,
512 MB, 40 GB, 15" 1400x1050, ATI Mobility Radeon 7500 32 MB,
wireless Centrino) with Mandrake 9.2.

Everything works very well (except some features of power management).
Most of things work out of the box with Mandrake 9.2: graphics
(including 3D acceleration), sound, DVD movies, CD burning, ethernet, 
USB, etc...
Two features required some additional free software installation:
internal modem ("winmodem") and wireless card (wifi),
but after this, both works well.

Best wishes,

	Eric.
