I've got an IBM T42 laptop that's currently running 5.4, and it's
working
nicely at the moment. ACPI works well enough that suspend to RAM works
('zzz'), the audio works, USB devices are recognised, and the battery
life's
reasonable (with est enabled).
Is anyone aware of any regressions in laptop functionality going from 5.4 to
6.x?

The addition of iwi has made life a little simpler. I think it is ok to take the leap... -mark
