I probably did, installed openSUSE 11.0 now as it seems to be a better match for the laptop, wireless running within seconds and the graphics driver doesn’t cause all kinds of psychedelic effects.
(Was running 11.2 Milestone 2 before ;))
Already reported the nice effects, when I’ve time I’ll probably install 11.2 alongside 11.0 and if that causes issues again I’ll report that as well… cause it seems this ancient beast was still missed during its downtime.
