I received no replies with useful information. So let me broaden the question a bit. Can anyone pint me to some documentation about installinf FreeBSD on laptops in general, or Toshibas i particualr? I have the oS loaded, and it works well in caracter mode. The mouse is a PS/2 like one, and I know that I ave to rebuild the kernel for this. But I haven't got a clue how to setupthe XGree86config file for the built in display. I also have some questions about using a PCMCIA ethernet card. It' lookes like the stabdard kernel is probeing this OK though. I haven't yet hooked it up to my network to test it. Anyone runing FreeBSD on one ofthes machines? -- Stan Brown stanb@netcom.com 404-996-6955 Factory Automation Systems Atlanta Ga. -- Look, look, see Windows 95. Buy, lemmings, buy!
