running beta 5 live on a Fujitsu Lifebook 7120,
Intel PRO/Wireless 2915ABG, Intel 915GMS Chipset, Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 900.
After setting up SSID and WEP, when I tried to Restart Network, the entire display disappeared, and nothing I could do would get it back. I could hear the connection notifications working in the background.
FWIW, Antix 7 ran same wireless without a glitch
I was using the LIVE

Well, your doing better than me, cause I can't get my wireless to work until after I install.

I have no idea what happened, you probably already tried rebooting, but the fix is easy, just boot the Mepis cd to the resolution that you want, press the F3 key at the cd's grub menu to change the resolution, when you get to the desktop use the MEPIS X-Window Assistant to reinstall XConfig, that should take care of your display problem.
