I tried sarge (option linux26) and I did get a working USB (no pcmcia)
but I had a lot of problems with other packages. So sarge is unusable for
me.



- From your cryptic description I gather you have a Toshiba Satellite A30; correct?

I bought a Toshiba Satellite A40 a couple of weeks ago and it installs perfectly with current Debian Installer versions. Kernel 2.6.5 seems to me to support the hardware better then 2.4.26, so I decided on installing with 'linux26'.
All hardware is recognized correctly; powermanagement works great (screen intensity & blanking, battery management and kernel throttling; no suspend yet); and PCMCI and USB seem to be installed correctly (USB 'tested' with joystick; otherwise not tested yet as I don't have any devices).


I'll write up an installation report one of these day's...

My hardware specs are at http://home.tiscali.nl/isildur/toshiba/lspci.html.

Note that I use some other drivers than listed for discover as they are 2.4.26 modules and the 2.6.5 ones are often different.

Hope this helps (a bit).

Cheers,
FJP
