Some issues: No sound, no Wireless (to be honest, i haven't really bothered with trying to fix these two yes). Sometimes i get some weird acpi errors in my daily output. It does have one of those 1400xsomething wide screens, which isn't supported (yet) with the default XORG ati/radeon drivers. So you might want to put that on your check list. (also something i haven't really looked into, since i use an external screen 99.9% of the time). But besides that, it's working quite nicely. Stable, speedy. The internal SATA driver is supported, the burner works nicely, ethernet ok as well. I haven't tried PCMCIA, firewire, but USB works like a charm. Hopes this helps. gb wrote: > Thanks Guys, > > I think that I might go with the Toshiba as unfortunately the Thinkpad > seem a bit pricey (I can't stay of the booze any longer :) > > > cheers > > g > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to > "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" > >
