X-BeenThere: freebsd-mobile@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: Mobile computing with FreeBSD List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Wed, 25 Oct 2006 18:19:46 -0000 After a long (and sometimes ugly) ordeal with a few other manufacturers, I finally decided on a Dell Latitude D620, which is sitting here next to me. It has the new Core 2 Duo, and lots of other exciting bells and whistles. :) The only negative so far is the 3945 wireless, but I have an atheros pccard to use in the meantime. I'm wondering what experiences people have with this, gotchas for FreeBSD, etc. I am planning to dual boot windows and -current. I am particularly interested in being able to suspend/resume in freebsd, so if anyone has got that working, please share the secrets. Also, has anyone with a core 2 duo tried running the 64 bit freebsd? Thanks, Doug -- This .signature sanitized for your protection
