Thinkpad T43 with Opensuse 10.2

Just wondering if anyone has opensuse 10.2 runnning on their T43. If so, did your wireless card work from the start?

I figured since people get to ask "Microsoft Windows" questions here why not ask a Linux question? Didn't know there was segregated OS forums/threads.

The wifi card that is built into the laptop of course. The standard which is in model 2668-75U.

And there isn't anything wrong with SuSE. Its a distro that works well for me, atleast 10.1 did. Please don't start this as a "My Distro is better then yours" thread. All I was wondering was, if anyone with a T43 was able to get their integrated wireless NIC to work with 10.2.

this is what i mean..... i simply asked you to identify your wifi card and briefly suggested that perhaps there are other distros you can try (ubuntu for one) and you start getting app fussy... chill the f00k out!

and you still haven't identified your card (lspci anyone?)
