Notes
Kernel version 2.6.25 or newer is required to have fully working audio. Improved ACPI support will land in the 2.6.29 kernel when it is released.
Discussion
I have installed Opensuse 11.1 on E8410 and can't use the Hard-Ware keys (Brightness, Volume, etc.). Maybe in the 2.6.29 Kernel.+
What bothers me much more, is that the wireless shows up some strange behaviour. I can't connect to ad_hoc networks as well as unsecured networks. My wpa-secured network however can be reached, just as the PEAP (mschap v2) network at my university.
