Well, if there's _anything_ I can help with, please let me know. I did dump the CIS using pccardc, but I didn't see the MAC address. I can even set the laptop up with a serial console and hook it up to a system you can log into, if that would help. I'm a pretty good kernel programmer, btw, so I _can_ get down and dirty with the code. The problem is that there's just so much I don't know about the FreeBSD kernel, that it would take me hours or days just to figure out where to start. -- Frank Mayhar frank@exit.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
