Peter:

Chuck McKinnis submitted a ticket for this problem.  http://trac.netlabs.org/genmac/ticket/5 but 
who knows if anyone is working on it.

You might be able to spoof your MAC addr.  Look at adding arp -s to the xwlan script, however maybe 
xwlan is broadcasting 0 regardless of any settings made w/ arp.

I never have tried to play an audio CD in my T61.  I just tried and smPlayer & mplayer do not 
recognize the media.  The MMOS2 audio player recognizes the media & tracks but I don't get any 
sound (system sounds enabled).

My T61 is T9300 bios 2.24
Core 2 Duo 2.50GHz, 3GB RAM, 200GB HDD w/ BDE,
15.4" WSXGA+

I boot eCS with Acpi.psd /SMP /APIC

I shrank the partition before I installed win XPPro but since this machine was purchased primarily 
to use as Win, I left the R&R partition and added it to bootmanager (bootmgr kills the blue key), I 
left 118gb to XP, made a 10gb for FAT32 to share between eCS & XP, and gave eCS 66gb.
