Might I ask when and where you worked at LLNL? I was at Livermore as an intern from 1980-83. Worked for Lowell Wood on the S1 supercomputer (Navy). Electrical Engineering was a 2nd career and I was in my mid-30's when Lowell had his 40th birthday party. Edw Teller was there that day. ANyway, I worked on porting Stu Feldman's "Portable" Fortran Compiler from (*don't laugh*) the project's 11/40 to the S1 architecture! --There's more to the story... . LLL was the best place I've ever worked; there was a rif in '83 that made me look elsewhere, but I managed to spent the rest of my career in HPC. ...What a time it's been. But _anyway_: Re ThinkPad 600E, I enclose the followng console.log. Why isn't pccard_ether being recognized? What ifconfig line am I missing? or other config line? --more below-- Jul 29 18:17:33 talk kernel: Jul 29 18:17:33 talk shutdown: power-down by root: Jul 29 18:17:35 talk kernel: pccard_ether: not found Jul 29 18:17:35 talk kernel: Stopping inetd.
