I have an old Compaq Evo N610c laptop that has built in Compaq Wireless LAN MultiPort W200. For OpenSUSE 10.1 and older I was using drivers built by Øystein Olsen. I have been unable to get W200 to work ever since I upgraded to openSUSE 10.2 and openSUSE 10.3. Last weekend I finally broke through by leveraging Ubuntu W200 instructions.
