I bought an Acer Aspire 1300 XV for EUR 990 a year ago, so let's say it's still "modern" and under $1000. Everything (except the softmodem) works fine; there is "only one" funny error. I have not yet found out what is going wrong, but the symptoms are impressive: After some random amount of uptime between 30sec and 10h, the machine freezes without any error/log messages and can only be revived with a power cycle. Note that this amazing feature "works" - with ACPI on or off - with or without X - in single- or multiuser mode - independent of system load - independent of attached hardware - even during the installation ...and: - exclusively restricted to FreeBSD and NetBSD. WindowsXP and various flavors of Linux run fine. Who can beat that? _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-mobile To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
