I downloaded and installed the latest "Breezy" public snapshot.  Almost all 
hardware works great on my Fujitsu FMV-BIBLO LOOX T5/53W (even the 1280x600 
screen is automatically detected).  The only problem I'm having is with a 
Prism 2.5 wavelan (Intersil) wireless minipci card that I've installed.  The 
card shows up under hardware, but does not show up under Network settings for 
me to configure.  I'm a relative newbie to the command line, so I haven't 
done much from there.  (I tried a newer prism GT card in the minipci slot, 
and it worked fine with the kernel driver.)  After reading about the prism 
2.5 wavelan, I believe that the hostap driver is required for this card to 
function.  Concur with the bug originator that the hostap driver may solve my 
(our) problems with this older card.
