I'm looking for: Lightweight Long battery life Minimum 1024x768 active matrix screen Full size keyboard no trackball 1 serial port on board 10BaseT and 802.11 built in The IBM X and A series seem to meet most of these requirements. Does anyone have FreeBSD running on an IBM X or A series Thinkpad? Are all the network interfaces supported by existing drivers?
