Wifi....yes....SLOW!

I tried to install on my HP Pav. with Opteron, SATA, nVidia, and
4G....the 64-bit version. There was a kernel problem, but I don't have
it nailed down yet. I hope to find out tomorrow so I'll have more
specs., but obviously, this shouldn't be happening. As to 9.10, on this
Dell laptop, it's the first time I really like Gnome....have hated it
for years. Further, all I've ever installed on a LOT of systems has been
SUSE and now openSUSE.....YEARS of dedication to SUSE and KDE. This too
might change, if there's a fix for the HP. I have a LOT of clients with
them, so converting them is on hold for how.
