I'm running 5.3-STABLE (amd64) on my R3240CA with several patches found on this mailing list. It's running fine, my only complaint would be that wireless doesn't work (even tried with NDIS but WPA won't work... I heard it works in -CURRENT)... Also, sometimes the laptop won't recover from a suspend. A part from that, it really works fine and it is basically a laptop copy of my Amd64 3500 box with OO, mplayer and what not. Nicolas.
