How to find out if Linux runs on a laptop

Hi,
I have a Sharp Actius GP22W laptop. I want to install Linux on it. I tried to install Mandrake 8.0 but that failed. How can I find out which distribution will run on my laptop ( like Suse or Redhat )
Thanks,
Dieter Janssen

Check the Hardware compatibility List (HCL) on the distributions homepage and also check out
