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
