Hello Bodo,

yes I am interested in the details for Suse9.1.

Do you also tested the Acer1523-AMD64 notebook with Suse9.2 ?
I dont like the red Ferrari outfit !

Or is there another Suse9.2-well-supported AMD64-notebook with a MOBIL 
version AMD64 ?

Is the Netgear WG511T WLAN card (Atheros 54g) supported in Suse9.2-AMD64 ?
Also with 108 Mbit/s ?

Best regards
Wigbert
