Atheros. Mine works very well (in a T43). Add if_ath_load to
/boot/loader.conf.

No problems unless you use DRI. I believe the support for this is still
in progress. You probably want to install radeontool and add it to your
rc.suspend and rc.resume scripts.
Something like:
if [ -x /usr/local/bin/radeontool ]; then
/usr/local/bin/radeontool light off
/usr/local/bin/radeontool dac off
fi
You may want to run the DAC off when running on battery, too, to save a
little power.
Also, put acpi_ibm_load into /boo/loader.conf and take a look at 'sysctl
dev.acpi_ibm'.
