I am not on Linux now so I can't tell you 100% but the hardware in your laptop appears to be identical to that in my Dell 11z notebook. Sound & LAN worked out of the box.
For WiFi b43-fwcutter is supposed to work, but it doesn't. Instead get on the wired lan and there are two packages in packman with "broadcom" in the name one is the kernel module and the other I believe is the firmware. Install those and WiFi will work.
Also I am using openSUSE 11.2 which was recently released. You might want to give that a try it will have better support for newer hardware than the previous version. Yes KDE 3.5 is removed but from my few days of use it seems KDE 4 is no longer beta quality.
I'm been using the 11.2 version but the big problem has been booting. I just got the sould to work using the "default" kernel, don't ask me why. But it just won't boot. One hardware configuration it completely stalls and there seems to be issues with the APCI...or something. RUben
