Unable to Install Toshiba Tecra A4?

[Greg Taylor]

I was just wondering if any of you Toshiba testers were having trouble 
with getting Hoary to install on your laptops. I'm having all sorts of 
issues with getting my network card to work. The Tecra A4 has a switch 
on the front to enable/disable the wireless interface. I've tried both 
on/off, acpi on and off, various other install flags, and it still keeps 
either thinking the wireless card is on or can't see anything at all as 
far as NICs go. I skipped network configuration and completed the 
install, restarted, and of course it locked up on boot at the hotplug 
startup.

I'm downloading/burning the latest Breezy build. I see that we aren't 
supposed to post (" Don't file any bugs at this point.") for I assume 
Hoary. But I will need to for Breezy if I run into the same problem?

I believe I saw that some other distro (might've been Fedora Core 3) 
corrected a problem with the drivers for my wired connection. I'm pretty 
sure Hoary is lacking the correct kernel module, but we'll see how the 
Breezy install goes.
