Re: Usable Notebook for NetBSD-current wanted
Yes, that glitch didn't give me a warm fuzzy feeling as it was particularly bad at the KDE login page. You could type you username and password without visual feedback while typing. See the 2nd video I attached to the PR. It would be great if someone (tm) could find the caching issue the seems to be there.

Re: Usable Notebook for NetBSD-current wanted
Hi David ! Thanks for that data point. I was sort of expecting the T480 to work. Seems that that is available on the used/refurbished websites if my quick check was right. Looks like an option.

I need to replace a 10+ year old W510 that is dying a slow agonizing thermal death. I'm running 9.99.99 -current (with packages including openjdk11, postgres & firefox built on 9.x for Reasons) on a ThinkPad T480 bought from ebay. - Suspend & resume - fixed by Taylor a while back, though may have regressed since (I had an issue that stuck me on an older current for a while & not retested) - Display - works though glitches every few days on intensive use, both internal and with additional HDMI display - Wifi - The iwm0 driver... is the iwm driver, so works fine most of the time, but about 1 in every 25 boots decides its not playing - The internal/external battery split works well (can swap external battery while running and without external power), - USB-C charging is nice, only two USB-A ports is less so - I bought one with the comedy cartoon 1366x768 resolution screen, plus a replacement 1920x1080 to swap out - Keyboard is late model ThinkPad, so "good", loses the real pgup/pgdown block of the T420, but the top row is at least split into groups unlike the mess of the T430 David
