Hi, I have changed my notebook with a Lifebook S6120 which seems works great under FreeBSD 4.9-RC. * Audio is ok: pcm0: <Intel ICH4 (82801DB)> at io 0xd0100c00, 0xd0100800 irq 11 bufsz 16384 (1p/1r/0v channels duplex) * Xfree is well supported at 1024x768 with driver "i810". Before this one I have a Lifebook S6010 (PIII 1000) and even if it use the same driver Xfree has some problem if you start it (worked fine), exit, start X again, no way :-) It remains freeze and nothing happens. This new version doesn't seem to have this behaviour. * The lan is a realtek 8139 or similar which works with fine with the rl0 driver So I should strongly suggest 100% this notebook to everyone is looking for a light notebook but that has everything you need, if it doesn't have a couple of drawback. 1) It is full of stickers "Designed for Windows XP" and "Centrino", which I really was unable to remove. I really don't know which kind of fucking glue they have used ... any suggestions is welcome :-) 2) The serious problem :-) seems to be the internal wifi card which seems to me be a Intel PRO/Wireless LAN 2100 accordingly to the docs. I suppose it is this one: none6@pci1:13:0: class=0x028000 card=0x25278086 chip=0x10438086 rev=0x04 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Intel Corporation' class = network Is it supported and FreeBSD 4.x and if yes which kind of driver I need ? Thanks a lot for every inputs.
