Hello, thanks for replying! 2008/11/23 Garrett Cooper <yanefbsd@gmail.com>: > As for the wireless driver, could you forward with more details about > your laptop, like the spec sheet, perhaps?

Yes, I 've seen this (the various revisions, was a bit confusing at first). My model is: Toshiba A300 Satellite Pro and the revision is PSAK1E. it has the latest available bios installed. The manual is quite detailed, hopefully it will provide you with the details you need. It is available from http://support1.toshiba-tro.de/tedd-files2/0/userman-en-20080403115838.zip One of the linuxes I tried seemed to identify it as a ral8137 (?) but netbsd is meant to support this and I tried that to no avail. Please let me know if you need more info, and many thanks. -- John
