David Chapman <dchapman@canwest.victoria.bc.ca> writes: > Does anyone have any thoughts or experience with Lenovo or ThinkPad > laptops? I have a Lenovo Thinkpad X60s running FreeBSD 6.1. See: http://hack.org/mc/freebsd-x60.html Very short version: Usable after PXE boot and installation: both cores are found, the internal NIC usable but with strange latency, running X with VESA fb. powerd works, but I don't get much battery life (4 cell slim version), about 1.5 hour. Doesn't work out of the box, but fixable with patches: Sound, accelerated graphics. Doesn't work at all or barely: suspend/resume, WLAN, SD reader, fingerprint reader. I tried installing NetBSD 3.0 as well, but it couldn't find any disks to install to.
