Hi folks, I'm currently running Slackware 7.0 on my Dell Inspiron 7000, and I've reached the end of my tether with Lin[s]ux. I need to switch to my beloved FBSD... However, I've been out of the BSD scene for about 3 years, and am not familiar with the current state of laptop support, especially in the most recent versions of FBSD. My needs are simple, I don't need APM or any other of the fancy laptop-specific stuff. This is what I want/need to work: - 1024x768x16 on the 15" LCD display - 3Com 3CCFE575 Cyclone CardBus 10/100 PCMCIA NIC That's pretty much it. I've looked through the freebsd-mobile archives, and I read that in April someone was asking about the same card, and the consensus was that there is no current support. What about now? Please, folks - I'm desperate to switch back! I've got my FBSD CDROM at the ready, I've backed up all my data. I'm poised, ready to install as soon as someone tells me I can make this work! What's the bottom line? Thanks *much* in advance, /ric|<t To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
