Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-doc@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk The task of comping up with an accurate "These systems work with freebsd" list is pretty impossible, so we say that "these components work with freebsd". However, with respect to laptops, you pretty much get a package deal; there is little lattitude for replacing various subsystem. As such, I think it might would be a good idea to compile a list of successful laptop installations. Thoughts? Judging from the mailing list, keyborads, video (for X) and power management seem to be the biggest issues. Am I wrong? -john == jfieber@indiana.edu =========================================== == http://fieber-john.campusview.indiana.edu/~jfieber ============
