I bought a Lenovo g530 and installed 11.2 on it, but there were no drivers for the internet hardware in the 530, so I had no access to my comcast modem and I went back toVista. When will Opensuse have hardware support for the g530?
Thanks, Dave Feustel see if http://intellinuxwireless.org/ helps
or
http://en.opensuse.org/HCL/Network_Adapters_(Wireless)
maybe try going through yast and finding new hardware?
Neither the wireless nor the wired ports worked so I had NO internet access until I reinstalled vista.
What chipset is the NIC? I did some googling and found those 2 links. It would have to be based on when the drivers are in the kernel, however Ubuntu works fine on it I read so I don't now. Probably have to get intel drivers. See the first link. See the 2nd link to see what chipset the NIC is and go from there.
I did some quick research and found that it could be realtek or intel chipset. Google is your friend.
