I used to dual boot my laptop with OpenSuSe 10.2 and Windows XP last year, Ubuntu is nice but at the time I couldn't get it to support all my hardware easily and OpenSuSe took the least configuring.

If you're going to install Linux, if you have issues getting more than 2 drivers working properly for components then my advice is to just switch to another distro rather than faffing around trying to fix it.

Oh and unless you feel reaaaallly brave, go for the x86 (32-bit) versions of Linux rather than the x64 versions as they're a pain in the arse to get working properly.

New Ubuntu is supposed to be really good btw.
