Current Issues
The graphic card (Radeon XPress 200M) didn't work "out of the box" <strike>3D acceleration still doesn't work.</strike> 3D accel. only works with proprietary drivers, and with those drivers the computer doesn't wake up from sleep...
The wireless card (AirForce One 54g, chipset bcm4318) doesn't work: it is recognized but scan doesn't work (I heard people less newbie that me saying it's a problem of software switching on/off the radio module).
<strike>the "Sleep" button disappeared (in ugrade from flight 5 to flight 7)</strike> it works, but it was not so easy to make it appear!

Notes
* Can't tell whose fault it is, but when listening and in the meanwhile recording, frequency of recorded sounds is approximatly a half of real. I noticed it on Audacity, recording while listening to recorded tracks. It happens every time, with both the "mic" and the "line in" jacks. Seems like data input rate is a half of what the driver expects.
** the modem monitor asks me for the modem port; I try the automatic recognizing, it doesn't work
*** Onestly I don't find a difference even when I do it under Window, except an icon appearing on taskbar; I say "no" just because nothing appears in dmesg
**** I will verify this information
********** Time to upade some informations on this page To use minipci wifi card some "magic" must be done - follow this instrucion http://madwifi.org/wiki/UserDocs/MiniPCI - workd perfect form me.
reply from Toobaz:
NO - thanks for the hint but I think something like this is the right way to do things: http://www.marvec.org/amilo/ (at the moment, it's for the wrong computer :-/ )
