Marius, did you ever get a solution for your problem?

I've just tried a Toshiba Satellite 1005-S157 ($899 after rebates at
Circuit City) and have seen a similar problem.  Before purchasing this
I searched the archives and could find no references to this model.
I've tried both 4.4-RELEASE and 4.5-RELEASE with similar problems.

I need to replace a previously work supplied laptop and want something
fairly basic that runs FreeBSD and can handle audio capture and
playback well.  Looking at the new generation of laptops, most no
longer seem to include a "line in" connector which is important to me.

The Toshiba looks like it should handle my needs pretty well, if I can
just get FreeBSD working on it.  I've generally preferred to run
-RELEASE, but am willing to use -STABLE or -CURRENT if necessary.

Can anyone suggest another sub $1000 brand/model which works well with
FreeBSD and audio I/O?
