Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-mobile@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Dear Nick, I had a problem with activating USB on my Toshiba Satellite 1710. I tried the hack postet for the HP Omnibook 2100 and it works perfectly ! The Toshiba also has the problem, that the Phoenix BIOS does not have any settings for the USB at all. So you can't do absolutely nothing in the BIOS. The posted hack is now 1 year old. As far as I can see it works on HP and also on the low budget Toshiba Notebook series. So why not putting this in the distribution (I have 4.2 and it's still not there). Btw. the main reason why I need the USB working is that this notebook has no more serial port. But I need to hook up to a Philips LCD projector which has only serial and no PS/2 mouse connection. Do you have any experiences with USB -> RS232 converters ? Many thanks for all the work you have done on USB for FreeBSD !!
