Quoting torben <torben@xxxxxxxxxxx>:

I have a laptop with a strange behaviour. If I turn on ACPI when I boot
the machine, the USB connections do not work (or at least, they work
very bad. A USB mouse is very very slow).

If I turn off ACPI when I boot the boot the machine, the USB
connections do work but the wireless card does not work.

I would like to have a setup, where both the wireless network card and
the USB ports are working at the same time.

They should. I've yet to boot 10.2 on a laptop but 9.3 > 10.0 all work fine in this regard.



I had been looking at
http://www.novell.com/documentation/opensuse102/opensuse102_reference/data/sec_pmanage_acpi.html but I have my problems to find oout, which module I should include, and which I should
exclude.

I hope someone know how to help me.

I could imagine some information of the BIOS system would be a great
help, but I do not know how to get the information for the BIOS. Only
thing I can see is, the BIOS is based on software from Inside Software
CDU.

Well, we can probably guess the bios from your laptop model and processor. What is the laptop, and what does it say on the screen when you open My Computer (KDE) or Computer (GNOME)?
