[lug] laptop video card Q

[D. Stimits]

I'm seeing a series of Sony VAIO notebooks, VGN-SZ... series, which have 
their graphics listed as an NVIDIA GeForce Go 7400. It also lists this 
as having an Intel GMA950 with shared RAM. Does anyone here know if 
these work with linux? I've never encountered the GMA-950. Frankly, I've 
never owned a laptop. These laptops are a bit unique, in that they don't 
have large screens, and they really are portable. I have absolutely no 
interest in larger 17" laptops. So...can anyone give me their take on 
how well these might work on linux? Especially using NVIDIA drivers for 
OpenGL?

I also noticed that ASUS has a laptop that isn't a monster, yet has 
NVIDIA for video, the A8Jm-H009H. Can anyone here tell me anything about 
how those work with linux...especially OpenGL?

There is a Toshiba Tecra series M5-S433 with NVIDIA Quadro, same 
question on linux/OpenGL. Or any info on any of these NVIDIA based 
laptops which are under 15 inch.
