Just sent you an email saying it fixed the modem and everything works perfectly. However have just notice one small glitch. (actually noticed yesterday but put it down to the interrpupt storm. Now have seen it consistently and been able to experiment a little) When I reboot (and I think halt and press key for reboot) the system shuts down normally but as it comes back up the BIOS prints something like: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Phoenix Bios 4.0 Release 6.0 Copyright 1985-1998 Phoenix Technolgies Ltd All rights reserved Inspiron 3500 A400GT BIOS Rev A11 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- then it hangs. Normally the next thing in a warm reboot is something about Mouse initialized but it does not get to there. If I remove both cards then the reboot works normally. So I assume that ejecting cards does soemthing to controller that reboot/halt does not and leaves them in a strange state. sorry! tonym To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
