In UEFI mode, the BIOS forced secure boot and would not allow me to boot from the image. This laptop is generally not recommended for FreeBSD. I bought it because of the A8 processor and the 1TB disk. But the disk is as slow as molasses and the keyboard tends to drop spaces and returns. The Radeon R5 graphics work in VESA mode, and I was able to get better performance at an earlier stage of 11-STABLE, but I have seemingly forgotten the correct magic to get kernel mode setting to work on 11-BETA. -- George --sfw4VWwJX7QugGkjzamyTrRiBnnl3R2nz-- --lQBhLxAxjxxdxf0hVy2mWJyJnGSyrz5cp Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAEBCAAdFiEENdM4ZHktsJW5kKZXwRES3m+p4fkFAlsSrmsACgkQwRES3m+p 4flz+Q//fMNeesxL1aud7LH5+G/NunpKK1SC2ajcnJl/OhI0dIhV4xyxZpLCAT4H mSDM3f3018seINGkY6qCgv+DFyNUjB/Nua2nWCQyUdepPq6l5cHN5YoM2Q+X1Gzk 0tk5Yb8XkJNsfbl4etj/1QFFEMfmX9Jj0Dx++0v9r7b0/VKfk5hZcuuVqbDyqJw6 rl0wC4uGUE15h/k+UM3f7eOhf4bX7H9m2DWo3x76EEu4WsxOXa3GuX4Ami6NaSIB 0tSNHoarIvhmqNvvQ0i+ffvOzVhmybHNZMeKPMcpKUh0nWRXiN//0DFadtgXHgkB bt7RJZox0scD/GCaN1M8VIckv/5VSxta5cyhxpdyLjU/gSDlHGGtTi6Uqf4JZWDQ /utl3Kynw5/ATiKG60kSrMFG/lTbEPJBbCRl4QWMdrENYH+RiSAmgz0WujIawodQ +7N/AC9jW1CT2acmtojk4dfZwSpXH/f75yY2nUiQGlY1CDeV1iWmYR5R/D0WGa0J UcjKOgigxBpoEDQvZtStBTud96D7R4iED1lTtpxUMvxd2ZlRZAaZncjIF4FHLuNv J+X4G4f/8r6llp+wdLnT4eGYkS4t0RZIpiAuOhdBpiqxMh/CByHnXcKfLURYJoji DZIU6kXLf6Sa2zgppcZWUprg0vzUYn1bMEv8WFqzKy4AEBQxjS8= =EkX5 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --lQBhLxAxjxxdxf0hVy2mWJyJnGSyrz5cp--
