With SuSE 10.0 everything including the onboard modem of my Toshiba 4600 worked right out of the box for me. However I couldn't get the modem working with SuSE 10.2 (I didn't try very hard, I just went back to 10.0).

This is the model with the Intel graphic and wireless network cards.
Ubuntu Feisty Fawn 7.04; everything works out-of-the-box including internal Intel wireless network card. The Beryl 3D desktop worked after install with zero configuration.
I have not tested the card reader.

Works perfectly under every distro I've thrown at it. Only thing that doesn't work is the onboard WinModem, but that's pretty much par for the course these days. If you're running an older XFree than 4.2.0, you'll have to use the FrameBuffer driver as the Cyberblade driver won't work properly.You'll also need to ensure that LILO boots Linux with the framebuffer enabled and set to the correct resolution. Under 4.2.0, everything works fine, and none of this is necessary.
