Hi! I have a Thinkpad Z60t but not with titanium cover :( I have got freebsd 6.1 installed on it and all devices was successfully found. Except sound and when i tried opensound drivers and it just make kernel panics on boot. So without any success and time i reinstall it and install ubuntu dapper. It found all and works perfect. But i still want t go back to freebsd. So i have a question: have you get a problem with sound while installing freebsd? Thanks!
