Wireless Card under Intel Centrino does not work

[spoetnik]

I have no idea how to enable suspend. I thought laptop support was
planned for Hoary. I have added these sources and update every day. I
hope one day it would work......

Other point. The hot-keys. You can use the acerhk module to hace these
buttons supported. Google for it, there are good guides how to use
linux (even special debian page's) on the Amilo M 7400
