hello, here is a quick report of how my dell inspiron 6400 laptop is doing with openbsd. the model i'm using has a high definition 1680x1050 screen and uses the built in intel graphics, not the optional ati part. cpu is a t2300, a dual core part. It's running openbsd current from around 16/6/2006. basic list of things that work: * built in ethernet * azalia sound * x with full native resolution (using the 915resolution port) * sd card reader (using sdhc driver) * usb * hardware acceleration for x things that kind of work: * speedstep (only for highest and lowest speeds) * X sometimes has tearing of letters in rxvt, no clue of the cause. * volume down key lowers volume, volume up doesn't raise it things that don't work: * wireless with wpi driver, bringing it up freezes the machine * second cpu core isn't detected with bsd.mp * apm functions (battery life, halt -p, ...) some of these get detected with the apci parts of the kernel enabled, but they still fail to work (the termal zone driver thinks the cpu is 1300C, i guess it's seeing fahrenheit degrees instead) * scroll function of the touchpad, touchpad itself works though not tested: * express card slot, due to lack of hardware dmesg & xorg.conf attached. i'm no xorg expert, the config could probably use some cleanup. // nick [demime 1.01d removed an attachment of type application/octet-stream which had a name of dmesg] [demime 1.01d removed an attachment of type application/octet-stream which had a name of xorg.conf]
