Toshiba Satellite A305/S6905 (USA)

Hard Disk: Swap, Ext3 and Ext4 works. HDDTEMP package read HDD temperature probe.

Wireless Ethernet: Intel Wireless WiFi Link 5100 (IEEE 802.11abgn) supported out of the box. You can also use Airmon-ng package form Aircrack-ng tools to inject packages.
Modem: Not tested.
Power Management/support: Works but with some configuration needed. The Fan does not work properly out of the box and processors may reach VERY (85°C) high temperatures. You'll need to enable acpi by typing acpi=on at the end of the root line (e.g. root=UUID=831acd6d-80f3-4b3a-8c28-7ef3f8e9a643 rhgb quiet acpi=on) on grub.conf; run lm_sensors (type "$ sensors" and follow instructions to enable probes, accept all defaults) in console to start probes readings.
Sound: Works out of the box.
PCMCIA: I don't know what it means.
CD-ROM: Works straight away. So for I can not use LabelFlash (TM) but I really don't need it. It reaches top speeds for reading and writing CDs and DVDs. I have not found the silencer driver, but I don't mind using it.
Floppy: N/A, who uses that?
IEEE 1394 (Firewire 400): Not tested yet.
SD Host Controller: Works out of the box.
e-SATA: Not tested yet.
