If you go read the mailing list archives for freebsd-mobile in, say, the last few days, you'll see all that's currently known on the subject of getting FreeBSD to work on a T20 or any of recent siblings. You can start with this message, which kicked off the whole thing: <3A23C3D2.E8C59D1E@servicefactory.se> As I read it, some people have had success and others haven't. It's difficult to figure out what the problem is, since there are so many variables involved and the messages in the thread don't always have the details needed to fully analyze the problem. As a hint to reading the thread, remember that "latest IBM ThinkPads" doesn't necessarily imply "T20". People have had different experiences with the T20, T21, A20, and so on.
