     Hello,

      Your observations are interesting because I installed FC4T3 on an 
IBM ThinkPad T-30 as well.  The installation went well except for one 
thing: I do not seem able to be able to obtain any audio streaming and I 
am not able to download any music through LimeWire.  In LimeWire, I 
continue to get the message that "it seems that there is no connection 
to the internet".  This may be the same problem that I am having with 
audio streaming as well. I also have FC3 installed on another laptop and 
am able to do audio streaming and download music from the same sources.  
I am able to connect wirelessly through the internet, though.  I am not 
sure if anyone else is having this problem nor do I know if I should 
report this problem in Bugzilla.
