When you say "CardBus", are you talking about all PCMCIA cards? There are currently 5 people in my company that have FreeBSD 4.1 running on laptops (Toshiba, IBM, Dell) w/ PCMCIA cards (Linksys, 3COM). Unfortunately, they haven't been able to help me get mine working. Can anyone help me?? What files do you need to see? Am I talking to the right group? -JMH --- Benjamin Hyatt <benski@pacbell.net> wrote: > On 06 Sep 2001 10:17:38 -0700, Jeff Hewgley wrote: > > I am not able to get networking up on my Dell > Inspiron > > 4000 with my NETGEAR FA410TX.
