Hi,
I have a Thinkpad T14g3 (dmesg below), which has both a touchpad and a
touchscreen (and also the red knob thing but I don't care about that one).
When I start Xorg with no xorg.conf, I get the following in the logs (see

Hi,
I have a new Thinkpad T14 AMD Gen 3. I tried OpenBSD 7.2-current and the
install went smoothly (from USB thumb drive to USB thumb drive, for now).
The machine booted, X11 seems to work fine, and so does the Ethernet
interface, but there's a whole bunch of "unknown" and "not configured"
stuff
