Disk: Image:22px-Tick.png 		Modem not tested The screen resolution and the touchpad were not properly set up, I had to modify xorg.conf manually. If you want bluetooth, you need to load the toshiba_acpi module (comes with opensuse's default kernel) and after that toshbt module (does not come with opensuse's default kernel, you need to download it and compile it separately). Thanks to everybody involved in releasing this fine distribution.
