Understand. Bekeley Lab has a nicer ring to it... (Well,
that depends, I 'spose.)

I was at Livermore as an intern from 1980-83. Worked for
Lowell Wood on the S1 supercomputer (Navy). Electrical
Engineering was a 2nd career and I was in my mid-30's when
Lowell had his 40th birthday party. Edw Teller was there
that day. ANyway, I worked on porting Stu Feldman's
"Portable" Fortran Compiler from (*don't laugh*) the project's
11/40 to the S1 architecture! --There's more to the story... .
LLL was the best place I've ever worked; there was a rif in
'83 that made me look elsewhere, but I managed to spent the
rest of my career in HPC. ...What a time it's been.
But _anyway_:
Re ThinkPad 600E, I enclose the followng console.log.
Why isn't pccard_ether being recognized? What ifconfig
line am I missing? or other config line?

ifconfig -a shows that the 600E knows there is a 100 card there.
In rc.conf I've got
pccard_ether xe0 start link0
or
pccard_ether dc0 start link0
I *had* and deleted:
ifconfig_[xe|dc]0="DHCP"
hostname="talk.thought.org"
defaultrouter="10.0.0.1"
This seems to cause havoc; I'm guessing there is some other
way f telling the kernel to exec dhclient.
