The first time I booted, the kernel didn't find my Intel 82573L Gigabit Etherent Controller, either, but a shutdown and fresh boot seemed to fix that. So I shutdown completely and rebooted a couple of more times in case the magic would work again, but it still doesn't find the wireless. (And this kernel doesn't seem to fix the wildly varying ping times in the e1000 driver, either, but it doesn't seem to make them any worse.) George George
