Hmmm. I didn't make any changes to the artist bio download with the last set of betas (assuming you two are both using the 1.3.x beta version). I just checked, and I'm getting bio information on mine.
@fredphoesh, the setting Download additional artist information should be the only setting you need to check to get the artist info. Artist Slideshow downloads the bio from Last.FM regardless of your scraper setting, so if there's no artist info in Last.FM that would be the issue. I'm not 100% sure what gets downloaded if you select a language other than English and that artist bio isn't available in the selected language, so that's worth checking too. I'll just state the obvious as a last thing. Your skin has to support displaying the artist bio info, and I'm pretty sure Aeon Nox does (although I don't use that skin).

@bossanova, the artist bio is cached in the same directory as other cached images in a file called artistbio.nfo. If you delete that it should download a fresh one. It is also updated periodically automatically (i.e. that cached version ages out).
If you two keep having issues, a debug log would be nice so I can take a closer look.
