As Arne suggested, this has no noticable effect on anything ... laptop still works fine, base station (w/ CDROM) works just fine, etc etc. Once this has been accomplished, FreeBSD 5.x installs and runs with no problems. Been running it every since the X40 came out. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-mobile To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
