Good Day! I also have a Toshiba Satellite Pro 4600. As you stated, everything worked well with FC1. Not so with FC2. I am not having your problem with eth0 (the built-in ethernet adapter). I do have an alias in /etc/modprobe.conf for that adapter (alias eth0 e100), but other than that it works. I am also having the problems that you describe with sound. I haven't been able to figure that out yet. I've checked all of the sound settings that I can find and I'm still looking. At this point, it would be nice to hear a simple beep, let alone music or some other audio. My only other problem is that my Cisco Aironet 350 PC Card doesn't work. It worked in FC1, but I haven't been able to get it to work with FC2. The system recognizes the card, but I haven't been able to activate the interface. I'm stumped at this point. Other people say that they have gotten this card to work, but not me. I've resorted to an old D-Link card (it pops right up). Sorry I haven't been of any help, but I just wanted to let you know that you are not alone. Jim James A.
