Can you tell me if suspend to ram (acpiconf -s3) works on the mini CQ10-120?, although I presume it doesn´t work that well, or at all, if you had to use vesa instead of the intel driver ... I would expect that would cause the screen not to come back after suspend and ACPI is my main concern in my netbook. Are you loading the i915 driver in your /boot/loader.conf? Thanks a lot and my best regards Gonzalo Nemmi Hi Gonzalo, As you expect, the screen doesn't come back. I didn't make any change to /boot/loader.conf.

Try PCBSD (http://pcbsd.org), is a Desktop BSD variant based on FreeBSD. Personally, I've used FreeBSD in a laptop in a few occasions but after trying out PCBSD, this path requires the least effort to setup a Desktop. The installation setting up of hardware is too easy. The kernel that comes with it, does a good job in recognizing the wireless chip, sound card, NIC, display other stuff. Even though it uses the PBI format to install software on PCBSD, one can still use port to install additional softwares on it by using the portjail console. Both PBI port works together well. In short, it definitely worth a try! :) I have tried to install PC-BSD without success. In the process, the screen turned black and i had to turn the CQ10 off. I don't know whether there is an issue with PC-BSD or if I did something wrong.

There's an option for display wizard to change display settings but I've never had a chance to use it because the machines I use (2 laptop with intel chipset 1 desktop with nvidia chipset) have no problem detecting the display settings. :) ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

I am pretty sure it has an 'N' protocol wireless network card and therefore FreeBSD will most likely not support it. Virtually all new PCs have 'N' protocol cards installed by default unless it is a very cheap model. -- Jerry ✌ freebsd.u...@seibercom.net Disclaimer: off-list followups get on-list replies or get ignored.
