Thanx for your input. It's not *that* new, but then again, neither is the Squeeze kernel ... ;P
For example, when I bought my current machine, the on board networkadaptor was not recognised, nor was the graphics card's chip set. It was several months before I could get the machine connected to the internet using the mobo network device. It was nearly a year before the GFX cardchip set was recognised correctly.Neither problem was a show stopper for me, but it might be a big deal tosome people.
Yep, the network card(s) issue does seem to pop up from time to time, even on this very list. Oh well, I'll do without the integrated network card for a while if that should be the case. It's the video subsystem and the proprietary drivers that really worry me... ;D
