Dario,

The PC runs on a new "technology" but the hardware I think is fully functional.

1. Azalia sound or Intel HD sound is already supported so you should be all
good with that.
2. Graphics works too.
3. Maybe the only thing that does not have full code in, could be the CPU and
chipset, which in any case don't really need code for it to work. kernel
developers just make enhancements depending on the chipset (afaik)
4. Fingerprint reader and HDAPS(dunno if this is only on the T60) works too.
5. Find the problems and then try cathing up with us.
