Hello all

I installed openSUSE-10.3-RC1 on a ThinkPad T40 using the
openSUSE-10.3-RC1-DVD-i386.iso that I made from the
openSUSE-10.3-Beta3_RC1-DVD-i386.delta.iso

The installation went fine but I do have a few remarks which I would like to 
pass along

The yast install picked up the Intel 2200BG Wifi card and I used that to load 
down and
install the patchs during the install process. 

Wifi worked just fine during and after the install (To be truthfull, I had more 
problems
configuring 2200BG Wifi card using Intel lastest drivers under Win XP than with 
openSUSE).
Great work!

During the installation my thinkpad model was incorrectly recognized as an "R40 
2681"
The thinkpad model is ThinkPad "T40 2373"
This is the first time that I have seem yast install mistake the model.

There was an rather annoying "PatchProgressCallback.99" message popup when I 
was in the
"Patch download and Installation" window that I had to click too many times for 
my liking.
I imagine that this is for your developpers to debug / troubleshoot yast 
installation module
code and it won't there for long.

Lastly the sound was recognized as a T41 in the "Hardware window" at the end - 
no big deal I
guess as the sound works fine but before is the first time that I have seem 
yast install
mistake the model.

Final remarks

- Things are looking quite good

- The wifi connection (controlled by KNetwork manager as eth0) seems to up 
faster "on
boot" than before (<=thank you) 

- I have an new semi transparent kde panel toolbar - cool eye candy (<=thank 
you)

- Konqueror and Firefox seem to open alot faster under kde. And now Firefox 
opens really
fast the second time (<=thank you)

-  I installed the w32codec-all-20061022-0.pm.1.i586.rpm libdvdcss2 and 
libdvdcss2-devel but
I still can't Kaffeine to play movies. Can any one help me on this one ?


That's all I have time for for tonight.
Regards
James
