Not I, sadly! It just worked on the Debian laptop that uses Gnome. Sometimes hibernating confuses things, but restarting the NetworkManager and applet services shows networks again. I think once I had to debug the underlying wifi with iwconfig, but on some strange pub network I'd not used before. At least it's possible.
Good luck!
Might be needed - the wi-fi on this Eee 'just works' depending on the meaning you give to 'just'.
At my brother's house, and at my sister's ditto, I just click the icon in the systray and fill-in the key, and lo! It worketh.
In the Fat Cat, I do the same, and it worketh not.
I haven't tried using the Acer flaptop yet. (Nev will confirm the Eee's aberrant behaviour.)
