Ok, I fixed it. I removed "device acpi" from my kernel conf, and added acpi_ibm_load=3D"YES" to loader.conf, this seems to have solved the problems. Just to clarify some things, then: On 9/19/05, Tobias Roth <roth@iam.unibe.ch> wrote: > I have neither of those. Are you sure the first one is correct?

I disabled apic as per this: http://gerda.univie.ac.at/freebsd-laptops/index.pl?action=3Dshow_laptop_com= ment&commentid=3D874&laptop=3D701 but I suppose I could've removed APIC from the kernconf. Either way it works:) With regards to the synaptics support, I'm *hoping* that it will give the same functionality that the Synaptics driver does under Linux, so that the KDE-FreeBSD guys can help me get KSynaptics (http://qsynaptics.sourceforge.net/) working. It's not an entirely NECESSARY tool, just a pretty way of enhancing the touchpad use. > I have a 2688WC2, which has a (useless) fingerprint reader and an X300. Consider yourself lucky. The Intel Media Graphics Accelerator 900 won't be properly supported by X.org till the next minor version (6.8.3), so I'm stuck with the VESA driver:) With regards to WHY this happened...I have no idea. I suppose using deprecated kernel options is never a good thing. Maybe next time I should read the context in the NOTES file before blatantly applying changes to my kernel configuration:) Thanks for your help! Regards, Ric
