It is rather some ACPI-related thing, as I could figure out from the Linux ACPI mailing list archives (on linux the same problem occurs, but more severely - no recovery from freezes), the problem seems to be with the access of embeddedcontroller, that makes the batter checking. But it is a bi technical for me... 2007/2/2, Timothy Bourke : > On Jan 31 at 23:13 +0100, G=E1bor G=E1bris wrote: > > I have a problem with my synaptics touchpad under FreeBSD 6.2 on an > > Albacomp Eco Traveller V4 laptop (AFAIK a rebranded Clevo M660S).
