MIne (or rather, my client's) isn't doing now. We have proved that it can work. But I still can't restart the laptop and find that wireless is working. I still have to fiddle, and then fiddle some more. And there is still a dns problem that I still haven't solved. (NM still isn't setting it properly). Perhaps I should go back to wicd - but that wasn't working. :-( I wonder whether it would be worth using a different kernel. I hadn't thought of that. I think that there is a kernel upgrade in the wings. Next thing to investigate anyway. Lisi
