Yeah, I found it a week ago, but thanks for posting the upstream URL. I also found the eepro100 driver doesn't have the support needed. Neither does Debian's antiquated e100 driver. I also found the Intel driver search page is 100% windows only, however I did manage to find the current version of the driver and it does have the support. I think ifplugd is keeping the hard drive active though, so that could be bad on the battery. One problem at a time though.. -- Joseph Carter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The guy with a rocket launcher <dhd> perl < /dev/bdsm <knghtbrd> you have a /dev/bdsm? <dhd> sure, it's a pseudosadomasochistic random number generator
