Hi all, I have a ASUS Zenbook UX430U with the same problem. I am heading to BSDCan (and the FreeBSD Dev Submit as a guest) this week and could spend some time working on this in the hacker lounge. That said, I am new to FreeBSD driver code, so I could use some guidance to help me along. Anyone headed to the conference that might be able to lend me a hand? Thanks, Brian Brian Kidney, M.Eng., P.Eng.
