Excellent drivers. Everything is supported except my Nortek Webcam, but I don't plan on using it a lot, it was an impulse purchase.
Just had to install 1 driver out of the box, the nvidia driver!

everything is natively supported, even HP scanner, I only had to edit a bit the xorg.conf file because of the VIA Unuchrome integrated VC, but it was really easy ;)

My Brother 620N MFC doesn't work in the slightest. To anyone thinking of buying it: avoid. :)

Great!
Only my webcam hasn't been installed due to a lack of driver.
I have very minor issues with my wifi driver which i remodeled my computer around of so not to get them. I was going to remodel anyway...
Changed from Pentium 4HT to AMD since SMP was a problem.

That wasn't the drivers dev teams fault, but the maker and their crappy drivers.
The dev was remaking the driver at the time to fix the issue.

Everything works with minor configuration.

With Hoary I had some fiddling around to do, but with Breezy everything is recognized out of the box and works perfectly. The only thing I had to do was enable 3D acceleration for my ATI video card and configure wpa_supplicant for my ipw2200 b/g wireless card. Easy and quick.
