But wireless connectivity sucks big time. I've spent forty minutes doing the install and updates, and hours trying to get an Intel wifi card to work. Network Manager? Don't make me laugh. It still doesn't work with SCPM and doesn't handle changing nfs networks! And now you can't even see what networks are available when you could before, by just right-clicking the icon.

US $59.95 EU €59.95 If you convert dollars to EUR it should be €38 thereabouts! Rip off? Hmmm! One thing that sucks is the price difference between the US and Europe…

Still lamenting the lack of a decent opensource ATI driver and wondering where Novell are with progressing with this. This is a very slick release indeed, the standouts for me include: - Faster boot time - Faultless suspend/resume (on my T60p anyway!) - Zypper - awesome improvement over 10.3, this is a major dose of aspirin compared to the last release! - OpenOffice 2.4 is kick-ass cool!

It only scans wireless networks once on boot. The bug report is closed but the fix has not been pushed out. The new knetworkmanager is broken for wireless.
