Hi,
I've just bought an HP625 notebook with a pre-installed SuSE system.
Of course, I'd like to replace this with GenToo.
The problems concern the broadcom WLAN driver, the bluetooth driver and
the keyboard layout (including special keys).
The graphics works just fine with 2.6.36 / xorg-server-1.9.2 and
ati-drivers-10.10 (to be).
I've found http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/HP_Elitebook_8530w
which shows some similarity, but perhaps someone knows a dedicated
URL / document.
Many thanks for your help,
Helmut.

Run lsmod and lspci -k from SUSE to see when modules it uses. The
wireless is probably the wl module, which is provided in Gentoo by the
broadcom-sta package.

Always be sincere... whether you mean it or not!

As far as drivers go, this should help you find the right one.
