1.should install madwifi 802.11 driver 2.should install NVS 140M driver if using NVS 140M
I've been attempting to install openSUSE 10.2 on my new Thinkpad T61p. So far I've had mixed results.
The new NVIDIA drivers seem to work fine at 1920x1200 24bits/pixel. I had to go to the NVIDIA site to find them. NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-100.14.11-pkg2.run was the file. Follow the instructions there and you should be fine.
My current dilemmas are:
1) Getting sound/audio drivers to work.
2) Getting some basic apps to work, like Google Earth and Amarok. Google earth complains:
error while loading shared libraries: libGL.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Amarok just doesn't make any noise at all.
3) Wifi. I have no idea how to get wifi up and running.
4) Bluetooth doesn't seem to be working, either.
I haven't tried any of the more advanced features yet, like the fingerprint reader or webcam. I'd be happy fixing 1 and 3...
Anyone having similar problems, or found a way to fix them?
