David, I hate reading messages to the effect of "mine works fine, what's your problem", but I've been running SuSE 9.2 and upgraded to SuSE 9.3 on my Thinkpad T22 for over a year, and have had almost no problems at all.
At the worst I have to restart my network sometimes if I move between wireless access points. I didn't do anything special, just installed. I'm using a Linksys 802.11a/b/g PC Card (I think that's an Aironet card). SuSE 9.3 added some really nice features like support for suspend to disk. I love that I can close my laptop and take it some where and then start it up right where I left off. I wish you good luck with your 600X. When you get it working properly I think you'll have a great time with it. Israel On 8/17/05, David B.
