    New to Fedora although I have installed Red Hat versions several times in
    the past as far back as Version 6. Have always had problems with laptops.
    Have the installation on a Toshiba Tecra 8000 with 366 MHz CPU and 192 MB
    RAM. Installed the Fedora Core Workstation option. Using a 3Com PCMCIA
    Network card and can not seem to get it to see the network. Also having a
    video problem when I try to shut down. Screen goes crazy with digital
    information and I end up having to manually push the button to shut down.
    This box was previously running Win2KPro with no problems. Any ideas?
    Anyone point me toward some documentation that might be of assistance? I
    really want to get this laptop up and running with this if possible. Thanks
    in advance for any assistance you might be able to provide.
