I hope that the question is a sign that possible fixes would be on the horizon. :) I have a Latitude D820 (Dual Core) (and have used a D810, D610, D600 with FreeBSD also), and most things work, except suspend to ram (S3) which Nate Lawson is looking into a bit (we've sent him a D610 to work with for debugging) - currently, I can suspend, but resume causes an instant reboot. Also, the high-definition audio does not work. I'd *love* to get this working, and even looked into trying to port the azalia driver from netbsd. As another poster mentioned, the extra buttons and FN buttons don't seem to work, and there may be some acpi_video tweaks that need to happen to make the external vga/lcd screen swapping happen like it should. I can provide lots of details if needed, and am willing to debug. We typically have spare Dell Latitude laptops for use in testing also.
