Filipi-Martin" Reply-To: adrian@virginia.edu To: FreeBSD Questions List Subject: FreeBSD on Thinkpad 750C Message-Id: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Hi folks, I am trying to get 2.1.5 up and going on such a machine. The boot floppy boots and I can use the -c option to unconfigure certain device probes, but after booting into sysinstall the keyboard becomes completely useless. I found some messages in the mailing list archives to theeffect that the keyboard is using a PS2 mode and that there were at one point some alternate boot floppies around. I could not find these anywhere. Could someone give me a pointer please. BTW, I also tried the latest snap floppies and after configuring the kernel and booting, I get random looking giberish on the screen. Is this a known problem? I am hoping that PCMCIA support is fuller under 2.2-current. thanks, Adrian adrian@virginia.edu ---->>>>| Support your local programmer, System Administrator --->>>| STOP Software Patent Abuses NOW!
