Everything works well, including acpi, with the exception of suspending. That will require a hard reset to recover. I'm very disappointed in the ral2500 with either NDISulator or native support. It's hard to get a decent signal in the house, and has frequent dropped connections. My wife's desktop is located the farthest away from the WAP and always has an excellent signal. I can be 10 or 20 feet away and have a very weak signal. It may be the way the antenna is wired through the lid, or just that the ral2500 just isn't the greatest... I have a friend who has the same Averatec as me, but runs Windows. He has similar weak signal/dropping issues with the ral2500. I just got sick if it and bought a Netgear WG511T pccard with the Atheros chipset and couldn't be happier. Always a strong, reliable connection. All in all, I love that little notebook, but I wouldn't recommend the RaLink hardware to my worst enemy. -Bryan _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-mobile To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
