Right now, I'm running 9.3 with a Gnome desktop, and the system is - not unstable, but fragile. Certain actions, like pressing a function key, starting the screensaver, or even pressing an arrow key, can send to the system straight into hibernation, if typically not on first invocation. The model is T530. All the ThinkPad specific stuff, keys etc.. works under Linux, so the hardware is fine.

There are several issues with 10.0 that have been fixed in Stable and will be in 10.1 when it is released in a few months. I have no problems that sounds like what you describe, but did not have them in 9.2, either. (I moved to 10 before 9.3 came out... in fact before 10.0 was released.) Can you more clearly describe "hibernation"? Since the standard definition of hibernation is to save the system to disk and power off, I think you mean something else as FreeBSD does not support hibernation. Do you mean that the display goes off and the system seems dead? Or that the sleep light on the system comes on? Can you tell us what graphics driver the system is using? Are you using WITH_NEW_XORG? (You probably should be.) WITH_KMS? (Also, you probably should, though it will no longer be needed with 10.1). Some keys, notably the brightness controls, will not work with FreeBSD. Sleep and resume can be a problem, also, but probably can be made to work. -- R. Kevin Oberman, Network Engineer, Retired E-mail: rkoberman@gmail.com
