Hi everyone,
let me start off by saying i'm a newbie to FreeBSD but not linux.  And i
did RTFM.
I compiled a new kernel with APM support and enabled it through the
sysinstall menu.  I also enable pcmcia cards.  Neither works properly.
This is a Toshiba Satellite 4010.
APM says it is running, but it won't shutdown after HALTing.
KPPP cannot find the PCMCIA modem.

Other issues: i'm having trouble getting ports to install.  I type make
install for midnight commander, it says all went well, but mc doesn't
work.  A 'find' comes up dry as well.
I want bash to be my default shell, and after setting this is
master.passwd, it still comes up with the default.

jcm
