A word of caution about the Thinkpad x120e with AMD E-350 Fusion
processor and integrated ATI graphics; I managed to get F15 running on
it this week, after missing some of the previous test days because I
couldn't boot into the provided LiveCDs (needed to use a minimal boot
image from 2011-04-13 to partition the hard drive), but suspend / resume
results in flaky graphics (need to log out and log back in again after
resuming to give X a kick) and the Realtek wifi card reports a strong
connection, even though it seems to be unable to transmit most of the
time (the logs show no connection drops).

I plan to file bug reports, just have precious little time at the moment
to pull the formal info together and I haven't found any smoking guns in
the logs to date.
