This is a common problem with many laptops and desktops - in particular, the Toshiba Tecras.... I'm running a 740CDT and have experienced the same problems in the past.... I've seen lots of info that this problem exists, but not *why*. Solution? 1. Download Debian's *-tecra-* diskettes and use the kernel on those. 2. Build your own kernel from scratch "the hard way". i.e. "cd /usr/src/linux; make mrproper ; make menuconfig ; make zImage && make modules && make modules_install" ,etc.... Follow the kernel HOWTO for much more info.... Regards, Kevin Traas
