I am not VIA staff so can't answer your question to them, but I thought the whole point of Linux is that it is free, open source and for people that like to play around with an computing operating system. There are now so many Linux versions out there which one should VIA or any other company support so you can have your laptop working.
Your computer was sold to you with XP on it, did you asked the sale person if it would run Linux any version, did you research the net about it. No I see you did not.
If XP runs everything you want why use linux at all, I don't get it.
