I plan to purchase a new laptop in the near future and they are all based on Intel Centrino Duo Mobile Technology.
Has anybody used suse 10.0 or 10.1 on a newer laptop with this technology? How is linux in general handling this?

I have a Acer Aspire 5670. On SuSE 10.0 my network card didn't work when I had ACPI enabled, so I had to run it without ACPI (no power management etc.). On 10.1, everything works fine, even the wireless. That is once I managed to get past the post installation blues concerning the online updates. I'm really impressed now that it works. Power management works well, as well as dynamic cpu frequency scaling. Marius
