Hello all,

You can also check the spec here: http://www.amazon.com/HP-Pavilion-dv6t-dv6tqe-Laptop/dp/B00506B7DS/ref=sr_1_...
I am going to install CentOS 6 to it but I want to make sure that which drivers will CentOS 6 support: Ethernet, Wifi, sound and especially VGA ATI Radeon HD 6490M.
Any help is appreciated.

elrepo.org has updated drivers for most things packaged for el5 /el6 if they are not supported by the distro, so it should be easy enough to get things working even if they are not directly supported out of the box:
The latest ATI proprietary drivers (v11.7) are available, as are the latest ALSA sound drivers (although sound support in 6.1 should be pretty good) and updated Ethernet/WiFi drivers for many devices.
Hope that helps.
