Hi, I've successfully gotten freebsd 4.1.1 onto my Digital HiNote Ultra 2000 laptop w/ x windows working beautifully... The only thing I can't seem to get working is my ethernet card. It's built-in the the laptop as well as the 56K modem. Windows reports the Ethernet card as 'Xircom Ethernet 10/00 + Modem 56' on IRQ 3. In the kernel config file there's a line with 'xe' as the device and it says beside it 'Xircom Ethernet'. Unfortunately... it doesn't 'just work'. I've tried about as much stuff as I know to do but can't get it working. In the kernel config file I've tried changing 'xe' to 'xe0 isa? irq3' but that doesn't work. Should there be anything in kernel.config? I've tried with nothing in there and with 'di xe0\nq', niether worked. I'm not very experienced with laptops... an don't know much about how they work. Would the internal Ethernet card be a PCMCIA card? or a normal card? Any advice is appretiated.
