2405 CA	10.0
Remark		(6) Using Ndiswrapper.
6710s	10.2
6710s	10.3
Remark		10.2: (*) Special Function Keys don't work except hardware handled ones (Brightness).
6720	10.3
Remark		(*) The wireless failed to function with iwlwifi driver, but functioned well with ipw3945 driver and wifi-radar (not with knetworkmanager).
nx 6110	10.0
Remark
nx 6125
Remark		(6) Using Ndiswrapper + driver. (C) Powermanagement/ACPI works mostly but sleeping or restarting freezes the machine. (*) Shortcutkeys (sound volume/brightness control etc.) do not work.
V 2401 CL	10.2
Remark		(6) When using ndiswrapper, if wireless device is already installed in Yast, edit it and change the module under hardware to ndiswrapper from bcm42xx. (*) Don't forget to type `noapic` in the boot options after rebooting.
V 2410	10.0
V 2410	10.1
Remark		10.0: (A) Newest ATI driver (as of 05/07/2006) works with 200M. (6) Using Ndiswrapper + bcmwl5. 10.1: (2) 3D Mesa OpenGL. (6) Using Ndiswrapper + bcmwl5. (*) SuSE 10.1 has better auto-mount support for external USB devices. SuSE 10.0 works, just has to be browsed through media rather than auto-detect pop-ups.
V 3000 Z	10.1
Remark		(4) It is impossible to adjust volume, or to mute. (6) Wireless will work but you have to use ndiswrapper with the Windows drivers.
V 6000	10.2
Remark		(A) Using Nvidia driver. (6) Using Ndiwrapper.
V 6302 EU	10.2
Remark		(2) Using Nvidia driver. (4) Update ALSA to the latest. (6) Using Ndiswrapper.
nw 9440	10.3
Remark		(2) Using Nvidia driver. (6) Although buggy; must change kernel module on wireless card to ipw3945 instead of iwl3945. (*) Function keys are buggy: dimming controls don't work, presentation mode works sometimes, calculator button doesn't work, information button does bring up YELP.

N 610 C	10.0
Remark		(C) Be aware that this laptop runs extremely hot. Under load the CPU will get close to 90C even with all fans enabled.
N 800 V	10.3
Remark		(C) Be aware that this laptop runs extremely hot.
N 800 C	11.0
Remark		This model does not seem to have the same heat problems the N610c or N800v have. (A) Cannot change resolution from default.

Mini 110c	11.2
Remark		(6) After 11.2 installation the netbook will hang on boot. Disable ssb and b43 modules which do not work with BCM4312 wireless controller. After you have a running system, follow the instructions on HCL to have a running driver for BCM4312 (i.e. compile and use the linux wl driver from Broadcom). (8) With external dongle sold with the netbook.
