Hi! They _should_ suspend/resume ok on freebsd-10.1. If in doubt, try -HEAD on it and we can backport whatever is missing. The iwn(4) wifi support will be better in FreeBSD-HEAD. Noone's backported that to -10 yet. https://wiki.freebsd.org/Laptops/Thinkpad_T530 has some information. (I don't have T520 or T530, so I can't debug it. Having a T530 would be nice; I don't have any Optimus hardware at the moment so I can't really test what's required to make it work out of the box on freebsd.) -adrian On 22 November 2014 at 04:09, PeerCorps Trust Fund <ipc@peercorpstrust.org> wrote: > Dear mobile-users, > > We are considering the acquisition of about 40 Thinkpad laptops intended = to be deployed in schools as teaching tools. > > For a significant number of reasons we have selected stock FreeBSD to run= on these systems.
