This is just a laptop with a touchpad. Chances are pretty good it's supported out of the box by FreeBSD's moused and even better than if you can't get sysmouse support that there's a driver in XFree86 for it. The linux driver is completely irrelevant not to mention the fact that I can't seem to download it in order to see what they thought was so special about their trackpad it was worthy of its own driver. Most of them just act like PS/2 mice. Molehill !Mountain Brandon D.
