Nothing has changed in this area for some time and the id for this

Hi,
I have an old notebook (Toshiba 445CDX) which seems to have all its devices
excluding video card and USB on the ISA bus. Here is the question: could I
safely remove "device pci0" from my kernel config as long as I doesn't use USB
and XFree AFAIK doesn't require any kernel support to work with

A very careful reading of the man page shows:
Note that two parsers will examine these escape sequences, so in
order to have the `chat parser' see the escape character, it is
necessary to escape it from the `command parser'. This means that in
practice you should use two escapes, for exam
