In any case my apologies if you see this request twice] I'd like to use both ethernet and wlan, whichever is available, with my laptop. In many cases I prefer wlan at home as I'm not tethered and performance is good enough. However, in some cases I prefer to connect to a switch via ethernet to have faster connection to a desktop PC. I followed these instructions: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/network-aggregation.html Specifically, I use the rc.conf entries mentioned in the box at the very bottom on the page, except that my ethernet interface is re0 instead of bge0. The lagg module is loaded during boot using an appropriate entry in /boot/loader.conf. Things almost work: boot with ethernet plugged in, ethernet still in: connected via ethernet boot with ethernet plugged in, ethernet out: connected via wlan boot with ethernet unplugged, ethernet still out: connected via wlan boot with ethernet unplugged, ethernet in: no connection What bothers me is the last scenario: this would force me to boot with ethernet plugged in whenever I intend to use ethernet in the same session. Is this expected behaviour? Is there a way to fix this? The relevant config files are attached below. regards, Markus /boot/loader.conf: verbose_loading="YES" # print verbose loader output during boot coretemp_load="YES" # intel temp sensor support hw.psm.synaptics_support="1" # improved touchpad support atapicam_load="YES" # access CD drive through SCSI subsystem cuse4bsd_load="YES" # required for webcamd sem_load="YES" # required by firefox for displaying HTML5 if_lagg_load="YES" #link aggregation /etc/rc.conf: hostname="wombat.mininet" ifconfig_re0="up" ifconfig_iwn0="ether 00:1e:33:26:4c:3e" wlans_iwn0="wlan0" ifconfig_wlan0="WPA" cloned_interfaces="lagg0" ifconfig_lagg0="laggproto failover laggport re0 laggport wlan0 DHCP" sshd_enable="YES" moused_enable="NO" powerd_enable="YES" powerd_flags="-a max -b adaptive -i 90" cupsd_enable="YES" mysql_enable="YES" linux_enable="YES" dbus_enable="YES" hald_enable="NO" anacron_enable="YES" # Set dumpdev to "AUTO" to enable crash dumps, "NO" to disable dumpdev="NO" # -- sysinstall generated deltas -- # Thu Feb 16 22:33:22 2012 rpcbind_enable="YES" rpc_statd_enable="YES" rpc_lockd_enable="YES" nfs_server_enable="YES" nfs_client_enable="YES" devfs_system_ruleset="localrules" fusefs_enable="YES" -- Markus Hoenicka http://www.mhoenicka.de AQ score 38 From owner-freebsd-mobile@FreeBSD.ORG Tue Jan 29 21:49:23 2013 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-mobile@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:1900:2254:206a::19:1]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id DF07318F; Tue, 29 Jan 2013 21:49:23 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from f0andrey@gmail.com) Received: from mail-we0-x236.google.com (mail-we0-x236.google.com [IPv6:2a00:1450:400c:c03::236]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 2BBCF98B; Tue, 29 Jan 2013 21:49:23 +0000 (UTC) Received: by mail-we0-f182.google.com with SMTP id t57so707956wey.27 for ; Tue, 29 Jan 2013 13:49:21 -0800 (PST) DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=gmail.com; s=20120113; h=mime-version:x-received:in-reply-to:references:date:message-id :subject:from:to:cc:content-type; bh=Ww/pUTMZkw3cuAPnlbO9gi00e5H5B2fLMgh/iMgvEoI=; b=V2EqUZN1kpdxwgaVPOfYAYcqnVYNnVpsHG8ZEFLjcK1zpGFdQLbhyg5lAr4PK13C9b GWDchcfp0ERAUf0n4VbrJXmHTUCwWVanFVohKjpN1dd7Y47QxrA2HO3h/TtAEmhexfIj VzTCgzZ7OT3Ra8gmN8O0ecgTRZgS7aMd4/ow8e5pWrgzuZ4lXWaXgvN87CU8lxfpowrj uewqb3vYKcrEzaSHjktRNfRrfucVJtJucCvLuQx/rfexl6vxhCoeQzwU9K7mUtc/H4An xzdyIuXrWOx7VLU1YUgv5FPHX6QQcrvy9K3cqDNGfd2nfisEHrr/BVMopnqnsDhxjT0G 5M8g== MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Received: by 10.180.72.232 with SMTP id g8mr5218404wiv.0.1359496161730; Tue, 29 Jan 2013 13:49:21 -0800 (PST) Received: by 10.194.41.10 with HTTP; Tue, 29 Jan 2013 13:49:21 -0800 (PST) In-Reply-To: <4F6126A2.7050301@mehnert.org> References: <4E836C06.9070405@gmail.com> <4E8374A7.90105@gmail.com> <4E9BDF13.4040006@gmail.com> <4F38211D.4070305@mehnert.org> <4F40A2D4.6000000@gmail.com> <4F57A8FC.8090106@gmail.com> <20120308092234.M18590@martymac.org> <4F5AC96A.3050600@gmail.com> <4F5FE9C1.7010901@gmail.com> <4F6020C0.60405@gmail.com> <4F6126A2.7050301@mehnert.org> Date: Tue, 29 Jan 2013 21:49:21 +0000 Message-ID: Subject: Re: x220 notes From: Andrey Fesenko To: Hannes Mehnert Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Cc: matt , Vrachnis Ilias-Dimitrios , freebsd-current@freebsd.org, freebsd-mobile@freebsd.org, Ganael LAPLANCHE X-BeenThere: freebsd-mobile@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.14 Precedence: list List-Id: Mobile computing with FreeBSD List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Tue, 29 Jan 2013 21:49:23 -0000 On Wed, Mar 14, 2012 at 11:15 PM, Hannes Mehnert wrote: > Ciao, > > On 03/14/2012 00:38, matt wrote: >> I have brightness control through raw acpi..."\_BCL" and friends seem to >> do nothing. >> >> Most of the video methods differentiate between \VIGD (which seems to be >> a check for integrated graphics vs optimus, but that's still a guess) >> If \VIGD is true, brightness commands are sent to the EC, where they >> don't seem to do much yet.

So may we assume your T400 now resumes properly? Reason I'm interested is having last week stripped a friend's T500 almost completely down to replace its snapped left LCD hinge - not an uncommonly reported problem with T500s, not so much T400s, on various fora including Lenovo and Thinkwiki - and I might get to inherit this one when she upgrades. A few observations from two long nights in the bowels of the beast: Construction quality, compared with my several IBM T23s, is crap. The broken hinge problem exemplifies that; I loosened the tension on the supposedly genuine but even tinnier-looking replacement hinge to hopefully mitigate a repeat, but even so I've advised her to open and close it gingerly and then as infrequently as is practical. The service manual still looks and smells like an IBM manual, but is inaccurate in several respects. All of the supposedly nylon-covered screws were in fact standard screws with a dab of Loctite; I only bothered with a very light grade of Loctite on significant screws like the heatpipe to CPU/GPU/fan attachment and the hinge-to-frame screws. The old remedy of blowing out heatsinks with a can of compressed air only works after removing the heatpipes to the fan and heatsink, which is a very finely-spaced grill on the fan output side, which was almost 100% clogged after 2 years, and blowing air INTO it from outside would only have distributed the muck around inside, ready to re-clog the outlet. No obvious air inlets, either. Yes, the heatsink compound was solidified and not well done originally. The heatpipe to the video chips (one Nvidia, one Intel) was different to the manual, but I may have googled up an older version. I used what should be a good grade of silver HS compound and it now runs SO much cooler, but these things are expected to be running hot anyway!: hw.acpi.thermal.tz0._PSV: 105.0C hw.acpi.thermal.tz0._HOT: -1 hw.acpi.thermal.tz0._CRT: 110.0C My friend is a fast touch typist, and has managed to wear the markings off half a dozen keycaps in just over two years, unlike old Thinkpads. This doesn't bother her, but a hunt-n-pecker like me has to think :) Care to comment on what works on yours, and what doesn't? I have to assume you've got wireless going :) What card? Are there any issues with BIOS blacklists for wireless cards?
