I installed Suse 10.3 on my D820. Now I am reinstalling 10.2 because of the following problems that are not solvable in the short term.
Intel 3945abg wireless card does not work wit iwl3945 driver and from what I have read on the list and the internet, also not with the ipw 3945 driver.
When running WinXP under parallels 2.2 with the latest upgrade that is supposed to be for the 2.6.22 kernel, it is so slow to be unuseable, like 10 minutes to open an application. System monitor shows only 6% cpu use during this time where as before, it would reach 100% at times. Think this is a parallels problem though.
I installed it on my x86-64X2 with no problems, but then I am not running parallels or wireless on it.

Art, I too run a Dell D820. I am running vanilla kernel 2.6.23, vmware 6.0.1 seems to run fine (although, it is a bit slower then I remember from a long time ago), I just figured it was the XP living inside the VM :) As for wireless, I fixed it on my machine by modifying the source code that I download from source forge. The modified ipw3945.c file is on my bugzilla report. Once I built a new ipw3945.ko file.. all was good and wireless is fixed. I haven't tried to modify the iwl driver, since I use ipw. I am sure they are both related (it is an issue with association and disassociation with the AP) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
