Soon, SUSE SHOULD have a NEW kernel for update! There are some nice things in it, like performance improvements. But, for laptop users, for the first time, and FINALLY, there is some Broadcom wi-fi support.
Fred Any progress on this that you are aware of Fred?
Cheers.

Desiderius Erasmus The latest that I know about is 2.6.16.20-2 I have been running it for about a week without problems. It seems to be a bit faster. I tried it on my laptop as well but I use a lan connection there so I can't let you know if the wi-fi support works also. The kernel in its various forms in available at:

Happy tinkering Ralph Ellis
How'd you manage to install it? I get this error, when using "Open with > Install software". And, of course, the :new and improved" Yast wants to install the original version, from the CD. I'm frunning 64 bit SUSE 10.1.
