I want to report the working of Linux (Ubuntu Feisty Fawn 7.04) on my Satellite 1410-801:

Device 　　　　　　　　　Yes 　　　No
------ --- ---
Hard Disk (Internal) 　 X
Keyboard (" " " )　　 　　 X
Touchpad (" " " )　　　　 X
USB　　　　　　　　　　　　 X
Network (Internal)　　　 X
Power Management 　 X
Modem 　　　　　　　　　　　　　(*)
PCMCIA　　　　　　　　　　X
irDA 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　(**)
Sound　　　　　　　　 　 　 X
Floppy (Internal) 　 　 　 X
Power Button　　　　　　 X
Lid Button 　　　　　　　　 X
Video (Internal) 　　　　　X
Video (External) 　　　　 X
Fn-F5 separation　　 　 X　　 (***)

(*) No program to test with, but I can't find the modem in the hardware info, so I guess it was not detected.
(**) Tested with cell phone in irDA, and Palm as IR-detector, but no noticeable signal was detected from the irDA-port on the laptop.
(***) The way it should work, not like in Windows 2000 Pro with the supplied drivers on the "Utility" CDR.
