They're good machines, but you're basically stuck (for now) with either the integrated graphics or the radeon driver (which still is spotty on X). Randy Booth wrote: > Avoid T42 (2374-K5U).

I'd just avoid this particular model to avoid confusion. > > Thanks, > > Randy > > -----Original Message----- > From: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org] On Behalf Of Daniel Underwood > Sent: Sunday, August 02, 2009 5:06 PM > To: herbert langhans > Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org > Subject: Re: FreeBSD & IBM Thinkpad - What Model to Choose? > > I've had great success with my my T43.
