It also seemed to cause no other problems. I'm guessing this has something to do with the PC Card controller mode, but don't know that for a fact. ("options PNPBIOS" in the kernel config is unnecessary.) There's more testing to do, but this may help others with Tecra machines or Toshibas in general. -Warren Block * Rapid City, South Dakota USA To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
