Apart from the Intel IPW3945 [2][3], all the rest was (at least, seeed to be) perfectly configured. I don't have time for more and extended tests, but at least seems to be installable. Thx, bye, Gismo / Luca Footnotes: [1] but without any internal hard disk [2] the firmware for the new iwl3945 driver is in firmware-iwl, unfortunately not in stable [3] I haven't tried the old ipw3945 driver, but since etch-and-half ships with 2.6.24, no ipw3945-modules- package is available for it
