Usage question
Is anyone successfully using OpenBSD and mplayer or vlc with mediasite to catch streaming lectures from a university campus or similar? I "had" to get a Vista box, and I'm at wits' end with its B$. Any help or pointers to upgrade my Toshiba Satellite dual core box to OpenBSD 4.1 and maintain my ability to continue in medical school is appreciated.

Erm, that's not true. I picked up one at Beelzebub Buy and it crashes my openBSD 3.8 machine.

Re: PCMCIA USB 2.0
No. I couldn't keep the machine up enough to get any change in the dmesg on it and decided that it was my fault for picking up a random piece-of-crap bit of hardware at Beelzebub Buy. If there is interest, I could fire up ye olde beast and attempt it. But, my hacking skills and OpenBSD usage is low, so I don't know if my bug report would be in a helpful format.

minipci wireless on Openbsd 3.7
What are some suggested cards to use for wireless (802.11 b/g) routing under OpenBSD 3.7? I'm hoping for 200 mW, but not wedded to that power. This will be installed in a Soekris NET4501.

OpenBSD 3.8 and Panasonic Toughbook CF-72
Hello, I got my 3.8 set in the mail yesterday, and went to my new laptop to install it, but... The installer hangs right after detecting fdc0. Complete lock, I can't even get caps-lock to light itself. I tried boot -c and disabling fdc0, then the installer hung after pccom0. What is the installer detecting post fdc0 that I can disable to allow it to boot and install (and then I can post a dmesg!)

Re: OpenBSD 3.8 and Panasonic Toughbook CF-72
Roger, thanks for the tip, enabling verbose helped me fix it. However, now my wireless card (Cisco Aironet 350) is telling me it's unconfigured... so still no dmesg as I have no network here. Do I just need to compile GENERIC with Aironet in it?

dmesg Panasonic Toughbook CF-72
Hello,
Here is the dmesg for my Panasonic Toughbook CF-72. When booting the
install cd, I had to disable ahc else the boot would hang.
I also have not got the aironet 350 working. Any assistance would be
appreciated.

Cisco Aironet 350 assistance
Hello,
I have a not-exactly-new Panasonic Toughbook CF-72. OpenBSD 3.8
installs well after disabling ahc* at the UKC prompt in the
second-stage boot.
But, my aironet card isn't configured, and I'm not sure what I need to
do to finish configuration.
"Aironet MPI-350 Wireless" rev 0x00 at pci2 dev 3 function 0 not configured
This puzzles me slightly. What do I need to do?
