If you end up installing OpenBSD on your T30 IBM laptop, be sure to consider
installing the tpb package, along with tphdisk package.  The first enables
the volume/brightness/Access IBM button on your Thinkpad; the second enables
a hibernation file.

Check the corresponding packages for details but these two packages REALLY
make running OpenBSD on your Thinkpad awesome.

PS.  I put tpb -d in my .xinitrc file
