With 10.04 my Toshiba l455 is perfect, except for fan control and function keys. Otherwise, I love it.
Thanks for making this thread.

Gateway ML6732 with 10.04 64bit runs pretty much perfectly, didn't notice anything wrong at all (except for the weak integrated intel graphics).

1)Version Of Ubuntu: Lucid 10.04
2)Laptop Maker: HP
3)Laptop Model: Pavilion DV6-2153ee

Installs smoothly. Needs wired internet at first to get the Nvidia and Wifi drivers installed via the Hardware Drivers tool.

Not working:
The fingerprint reader is a mystery.
Sound is touch and go and plugging headphones in doesn't mute main speakers.
