Linux Compatibility
Notes
On some older version of the kernel the audio will only work though the headphone jack, not the inbuilt speakers. You will need to run a kernel with version 2.6.16 or greater for audio to work properly.
Currently the open source radeon module included with X.org does not support the ATI Mobility Radeon x1600. However you can get this working using the proprietary ATI module.
For best results you should use a Linux distribution with kernel 2.6.16 or greater, such as Fedora Core 5 or Ubuntu Linux 6.06, with the nx9420.
Summary
Apart from the audio problem and if you don't mind using the propietary ATI module then the Hewlett-Packard nx9420 works well under Linux.

Hi, can see this is an old guide?
But just installed Ubuntu 12.04 and the fans a running at 100% all the time.. Why?
else it works just fine!
I can´t get the HP docking station to work with the X1600 ATI graphics card. I´m using the open source ATI driver.
I have not looked into it so it might be a configuration issue
With ubuntu 10.10, works fine out of the box
56k Modem works with kppp
With Ubuntu 8.04 the sound is working just fine.
