Good afternoon... I've got a Toshiba Satellite 2140CDS with the same controller. My problem is that the ethernet card I use (a 3Com 575) is recognized, get's a DHCP address (not quickly, but after a few tries), but then can NOT do anything (i.e.: can't ping, nslookup can't connect to a server, other hosts cannot ping it). There is a related thread at BSD forums: http://www.freebsdforums.org/forums/showthread.php?t=37600 My floppy drive is not working either, and I only got my thumbdrive back today so hopefully I will able to get some info off the machine for further analysis. In the BIOS I have set the controller to CardBus because of a tip I read for (excuse me) Win 95. I will try PCIC tonight/this weekend. But I also noticed in man pccbb that the controller was explicitly listed. So is there a way I can get the kernel to use that driver? If it is a driver?! Or am up the wrong tree? Thanks.
