everything appears to be recognized very well including sound, with following exceptions:
screen size reported 1024x768, offered 1280x1000. took the 1280 and then used yast to set 1280x800@60hz. worked fine
I cannot get wireless to connect.
Intel 4965, module iwl4965 wpa-psk
tried no encription, wpa w & w/o
did rcnetwork wlan0 restart after each change ifconfig wlan0 does not get an address
I have a T61, with the same wireless card and same problems. I eventually found out there was a problem with the iwl4965 drivers and kernels later than 2.6.22. I got RC1 to work by adding the ipw driver and if-up in the global configuration for network cards in Yast. No such luck, however, in 11.0 GR. To get it working I had to switch back to knetwork manager and install the compat-wireless drivers. You can find them from this link: http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Download You may need to reboot after installation. -- bob@rsmits.ca * I have no trouble with my enemies.
