Sam, any clues about the problem below? I'm starting to suspect the problem might actually be something around CardBus, as others have reported similar problems: http://www.mail-archive.com/freebsd-stable@freebsd.org/msg91307.html I'm also using T61p laptop. Maybe something that prevents the cards from being init'd properly? Petr ================================================================ Petr Holub CESNET z.s.p.o.
