I will be ordering a Lenovo E530 in the next coming days but I have a question about Broadcom wifi chips.
Some batches of the E530 come with Intel Centrino chips, others with Broadcom wifi. I know Intel Centrino poses no problems with Linux, but Broadcom can be hit and miss. As there is no way that the shop I'm buying from can guarantee that my E530 will come with Intel Centrino technology (since that's the manufacturers prerogative), I'm afraid I might get a model with Broadcom chips.
So, in the case that should happen, can I expect lots of problems in linux or maybe even forget Linux altogether ?
