I have a brand new Lifebook E8420 and I believe the Atheros wireless chipset is an a/g/n chipset. It lists as: none0@pci0:32:0:0: class=0x028000 card=0x147c10cf chip=0x002a168c rev=0x01 hdr=0x00 I read somewhere that this chipset is supported by the new ath9k Linux driver but, of course, I run FreeBSD. -- Frank Mayhar frank@exit.com http://www.exit.com/ Exit Consulting http://www.gpsclock.com/ http://www.exit.com/blog/frank/ http://www.zazzle.com/fmayhar*
