Hi there I'm after a few pointers for installing FreeBSD 5.1 on a TP 600E. I have installed it on this machine previously but couldn't get my Xircom CardBus Ethernet 10/100 + 56K Modem card working so threw the towel in. I have Slackware 9 on it right now and it works flawlessly after a bit of tweaking (well, all the devices such as the Xircom, sound, DVD work) but really want to get 5.1 going. After googling around for FreeBSD on a 600E I found an article (focussing on 4.7) which suggested I recompile the kernel in order to get the Xircom working. I did this, rebooted and still no ethernet. I know this is a bit vague but if anyone has some tips on how to get this card going I'd be most grateful. Jason Friedland (FreeBSD noob)
