I have a Toshiba p205d-s7454 laptop with a built in atheros wireless card. The chipset is 5006.

Atheros has no plans to support Linux, why should we support them? Spend your money on hardware vendors that actively support Linux, it's the best message we can send leeches like Atheros. From: http://apcmag.com/7016/linus_torvalds_talks_future_of_linux_page_2 The good news is that a lot of hw manufacturers are actually doing the right thing. Intel in particular has improved wrt open source a lot, and for that reason I tend to suggest that when buying a machine, just make sure that you buy one with Intel graphics and wireless. That takes care of the two biggest annoyances right there. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
