It suspends just fine and comes back up way faster than Windows. I can send you my kernel configuration file and rc.conf when I get home. But try to turn on apm in rc.conf as well as apmd > Another thing is, that I don't have the button-press function on > the touchpad.

I also figured this one out. in rc.conf, the mouse is configured as "auto", when in auto it doesn't do the tapping right. but if you specify "PS/2", tapping should work. Again I don't remember what the name is exactly, but I can send you my rc.conf when I get home. If you setup your X to use systemmouse, it should work. > Of course, the crappy internal modem is useless under FreeBSD. I never use it, so doesn't bother me. My Linksys wireless PCMCIA card worked out of the box, which was amazing coz I tried Debian and it wasn't supported without a lot of hacking. --=20 andrew y ng http://andrewng.com fingerprint : 46a1 29ff 893a 0381 dc81 1e1e bed8 e882 9bfc 594c --=-/KbYX9q30hsaNz/xki0v Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iEYEABECAAYFAj3Kjo8ACgkQvtjogpv8WUwmzwCg1aT7sALDVvE+m9m8DTlD5Vqt lgwAnjzknrYtaWBm3t4JIDS2lOVacFZu =wDTW -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-/KbYX9q30hsaNz/xki0v-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
