First off I apologize for all the emails, in the last one I included the
wrong dmesg.
I have a Sony VAIO GRX-570 running FBSD 5.0-RELEASE. Under 4.7 my mouse

idea why it doesn't work. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Greetings everyone!!
I'd very much like to install FreeBSD on the above laptop. However,
there is a problem in that it sits full time on a Toshiba Docking
Station...in which sits the NIC. Although ('natch) there are PCMCIA
slots, I've never bought a card, owing to the existence of the dock. I
I hate to be a party pooper but I think you'll find that if Linux
(which supports a larger range of hardware than FreeBSD) doesn't
support your card then FreeBSD probably won't. In any case consult the
freebsd hardware notes. Your best bet is just to buy a cheopo PCMCIA
NIC...
