You should perhaps take a look at this:
http://linuxhcl.com/

Maybe something of yours is not listed and this should act as a guide.
Kinda reminds me of the old Windows NT days - users used to complain
that the hardware they had didn't work BUT, if they had what was listed,
it did (of course) and ma have saved some of them not only headaches,
but money too.
