As with every laptop, CardBus isn't supported yet. I've also got an Inspiron 7500. I had the same problem with getting the 1400x1050 res so I'm using XFree864. The 3com nic they sell with it is cardbus, so I've got a Netgear 10/100 (that never had the auto select problem). While the sound drivers are not in the 4-STABLE source tree I have been running them under 4-STABLE for several weeks now. --- Joseph Scott joseph.scott@owp.csus.edu The Office Of Water Programs - CSU Sacramento To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
