Hello, Gustav Degreef schrieb:
You might try http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/driver:/wireless/openSUSE_11.0/noa... and see if it will help. I have no experience with the card myself.
I got mine to work using a fedora iwl5000-ucode firmware package since I could not find a SuSE one. I also used a 2.6.27 kernel which I got from webpin (factory) http://packages.opensuse-community.org/
I would like to add a repository through Yast for the kernel rpm and rpm's for the other hardware but I have not figured out if that's possible yet. The wifi works well, but I have not yet been able to get the webcam,etc working. Good luck. Gustav
thanks for your hints. I got my intel wifi 5100 card running with the 2.6.27 kernel now - with the disadvantage that my ATI graphics card doesn't run out of the box any more. Too bad that I have to recompile the kernel module for my ATI card. This is part of the proprietary driver from ATI/AMD. Although there is a SUSE maintainer who maintains an .rpm-package for the ATI graphics drivers, the .rpm is only available for the 2.6.25 kernel used by OS 11.0. :( And the proprietary linux package provided by ATI is not at all something that can be used straightforward and seamless to add on OS 11.0. It takes some time to get the new kernel module compiled out of that bunch of files.
