I tried FreeBSD 8.0 on a Dell i7 laptop, but the fan is constantly
spinning with maximal speed (and maximal noise).
dev.cpu.0.cx_supported lists only C1. Maybe this is related to
i386/135447 (but I am on 8.0/amd64 and not 7.2/i386).

For something more portable, check out the ThinkPad X40 series. I love
my little X40.

Search for FreeBSD diskless booting, the manual has info, there some how
to sites as well. I've installed in Dell DataVaults this way. Works fine

Hi,
On modern laptops, the BIOS allows you to boot from an USB key. So, you

Dear Colleagues,
I have a laptop with FreeBSD 6.1 on it and it is working fine. I
recently received a card for wireless internet; it is in fact a
Verizon Wireless PC5740 card and I am wondering if I can set it up on
my FreeBSD laptop.
I googled about it and I found [1] mentioning about some

Dear list,
I have a Sony PCG-GR114EK notebook and I'm trying to get FreeBSD to work on
it with varying degrees of success. I've tried 4.6, 4.7 and 5.0 and I'll
give the errors in that order.
FreeBSD 4.6.
This installs the best and I don't have any problems except when trying to
run XFree86
