Does SUSE Linux 10.1 RC1 have support for centrino wireless (ipw2200 module)? The release candidates of SUSE Linux 10.0 didn't have it (but final release did) so I wanted to ask before I attempt to upgrade my notebook.

I believe they all had support, but you need to use the non-OSS add-on disk to install it. If it's a 802.11G chipset it will never be "un-tainted" because of binary firmware needed for it to run. Beta9 supported ipw3945 using this approach. Sander
