I think this laptop-list has not many members (but I might be wrong)
and I personally had more success with asking laptop questions on
the "normal" (non-laptop) RHEL5 or Fedora lists.

This is a correct observation.  Even a system certified for SLES9 (IIRC)
didn't run RHEL4, just because it needed 915resolution (to patch the
Intel video chipset BIOS table).  This was easily fixable, but it shows
that only the target OS is a reliable test.
