1.92      nick       22: <p> If your laptop isn't listed below doesn't mean that it won't work,
1.95      nick       23: and you will most likely find a similar model that is listed below.
                     24: Most laptops work very well, however some will still have minor issues.
1.92      nick       25:
                     26: <p> Of those that have problems,
1.1       deraadt    27: <ul>
1.5       deraadt    28: <li>Some exhibit problems with APM support.  Note that <strong>apm -S</strong>
1.95      nick       29:        fails to suspend some laptops.
1.38      deraadt    30: <li>Some lack sound support
1.84      mickey     31: <li>A few have subtle bugs with their PCMCIA and CardBus support
1.116     grunk      32: <li>There is currently neither Firewire nor ACPI support in OpenBSD
1.92      nick       33: <li>XFree86/X.org does not support some displays properly. Sometimes
1.94      nick       34:        switching between both of them helps.
1.191     aanriot    35: <li>Some other built-in devices don't work.
1.1       deraadt    36: <li>Some have problems with pcmcia card eject interrupts.
1.95      nick       37: <li>Almost all modern laptops with on-board modems have "winmodems",
                     38:        which are not currently and are unlikely to ever be supported.
1.104     nick       39:        Use a PCCard modem if you need one that works.  You can
1.95      nick       40:        assume any modem on the machines below does NOT work unless
                     41:        indicated.
1.101     nick       42: <li>IBM Thinkpads (and perhaps other notebooks, too) with Phoenix-style
                     43:        BIOSes offer a so-called "hibernation mode", where memory is
                     44:        written to disk. You can use this feature with OpenBSD.
                     45:        Generate the partition for hibernation using the
                     46:        <tt>/usr/ports/sysutils/tphdisk</tt> utility from the
1.189     steven     47:        ports collection.
1.184     grunk      48:        The hibernation partition requires to be a MS-DOS partition at
                     49:        the beginning of the harddisk. This partition can be of type
                     50:        16 bit FAT or FAT32 (as such it is possible that a Windows install
                     51:        lives in this partition).
                     52: <li>IBM Thinkpads with mini-PCI slots will check PCI IDs against a
1.115     nick       53:        built-in list of "allowed" devices, and thus will not work with
                     54:        third-party cards. This behavior can be changed by using the
                     55:        <tt>/usr/ports/misc/tpwireless</tt> utility from ports BEFORE
                     56:        inserting the third-party card. This utility sets a "magic bit"
                     57:        in the BIOS to disable this check.
