Has anyone installed FBSD on a Dell Latitude LM? I'm going to give it a
shot, and any tips or hints would be appreciated, especially with regard to
X Windows on the NeoMagic video card and/or experiences with various PCMCIA
cards.

I'll post results if anyone is interested. I'm going to try a vanilla
PPP install first, then I'll probably try out some of the PAO stuff 
(the boot floppy hangs this particular system).
