The pages I found with a quick google search are either out-of-date and unmaintained (like ) or just carry a few links to other people's pages () - which is a good thing of course and better than nothing, but I'd also like something like "Notebooks known to work very well with FreeBSD 5.0" or something like that :-) I'm willing and volunteering to maintain such a list or database. What do you think about it? regards, le --=20 Lukas Ertl eMail: l.ertl@univie.ac.at UNIX-Systemadministrator Tel.: (+43 1) 4277-14073 Zentraler Informatikdienst (ZID) Fax.: (+43 1) 4277-9140 der Universit=E4t Wien http://mailbox.univie.ac.at/~le/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
