Does anyone else use Linux on a laptop? If so, have you been able to 
roam wifi networks? I haven't been able to get one to work, and I've 
tried 2 different Dell laptops over the years.

Wicd is a great wifi manager, but it doesn't roam. NetworkManager is 
unreliable, and drops connections regularly. Wifiroamd doesn't roam like 
it's supposed to (at least not on my boxes/distros). Are there any other 
options?

My current distro is openSUSE 13.1, but I'd even be willing to switch 
distros if I could get roaming to work.
