Subject: ThinkPad 760E install failing miserably

I'm trying to install either FreeBSD 2.2-RELENG or FreeBSD-current on an IBM ThinkPad 760E, and am failing miserably. The MWave modem doesn't work; there's no XFree86 driver for the 1024x768 LCD (the chip, a Trident Cyber 9386, isn't listed); suspend/resume and hibernation seem to be completely unusable. (What's the point of having a laptop if you have to reboot every time you want to use it?) Has anyone successfully conquered these problems?
