(sony vaio hardware) X-BeenThere: freebsd-current@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: Discussions about the use of FreeBSD-current List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Tue, 28 Aug 2007 15:01:24 -0000 Hi, I installed FreeBSD-6.2R several days ago soon to realize that my sound card is not supported :-( Now, I'd like to install FreeBSD-Current, but I thought I'd send a quick email for hardware checking before I jump into snapshots. Sadly, very little information about FreeBSD-7 can be found on the net. My hardware is Sony Vaio FJ170/B (FJ1S/W) laptop. Please let me know if you have experience with any of the following: 1. CPU frequency scaling for Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor 1.73GHz (centrino). 2. Hibernate / Standby support for Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM chipset 3. Wireless with an Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 2200BG card 4. Sony ACPI support for screen brightness adjustment Thanks, Shane ____________________________________________________________________________________ Park yourself in front of a world of choices in alternative vehicles.
