I've got a Satellite A100-VA9, which is similar. I was able to get my ethernet port working with the Intel Pro/100 fix that's floating around, so if that didn't work for you I'm not sure what you could do. I've also found that the GFX patching available in the new Chameleon works beautifully on the built-in 7600 Go, when no injector kext would. I've also got the 'stuck key' problem on wake. The up key sticks on mine.

Other than that quirk and fairly dismal battery life (1:30 - 1:45 tops) I'm pretty happy with OS X on this notebook. It's a better performer than the Vista Home Premium that came with the computer.

Edited to add:

I use retail as a base and then add the following:
Chameleon RC2
Voodoo HDA
Voodoo Power
Voodoo Battery
Patched AppleIntel8255
Voodoo PS2 (with working two-finger scroll and right-click)
fixed dsdt.aml
dsmos.kext

I haven't bothered to try to get the PC card slot working and the SD card slot is a lost cause. Sleep works fantastic.
