Do you mean the Compaq Presario 900 series?  It turned out that the 
chipset is brand new and undocumented, so it caused tons of problems 
with various Linux components.  This turned into one ugly Bugzilla 
report and a mailing list with 50 members, and growing.

Radeon IGP chipset is not supported (eg Compaq Presario 900, HP z4115)

I don't know if this latest Red Hat beta has the changes necessary to 
run this laptop.
