Hi,
I just my hands on an Acer AspireOne. I've installed openSUSE 11.0 on it. All work well expect the wireless card. I've installed wifi ( its an Atheros card AR242x witch uses the ath5k kernel module ). The card appears as wlan0 and wmaster0. I try to connect it with NetworkManager but no luck it does not connect. Bellow is the NetworkManager log:
