Running on Samsung x20

I am strongly considering installing Arch on my laptop since don't feel much love for Ubuntu (seriously. It's just a pretty Debian. Most overhyped distro ever? Discuss!) and I can't get my goddamn wifi running there. So I'm wondering whether anyone has this lap running under Arch, especially with working wifi. Thanks

Re: Running on Samsung x20

I got wi-fi to work on my Acer Aspire 3004 laptop.  Got it to work with ndiswrapper and the windows broadcom drivers from acer's site.  Took a bit of work, but was not too difficult. 

If your computer needs to use ndiswrapper, I can help you out with it.
