1.92 nick 20: <p> This is a list of laptops known to be working with OpenBSD.
1.1 deraadt 21:
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
1.271 martynas 32: <li>There is currently no Firewire support in OpenBSD
1.191 aanriot 33: <li>Some other built-in devices don't work.
1.1 deraadt 34: <li>Some have problems with pcmcia card eject interrupts.
1.95 nick 35: <li>Almost all modern laptops with on-board modems have "winmodems",
36: which are not currently and are unlikely to ever be supported.
1.104 nick 37: Use a PCCard modem if you need one that works. You can
1.95 nick 38: assume any modem on the machines below does NOT work unless
39: indicated.
1.273 sobrado 40: <li>IBM ThinkPads (and perhaps other notebooks, too) with Phoenix-style
1.101 nick 41: BIOSes offer a so-called "hibernation mode", where memory is
42: written to disk. You can use this feature with OpenBSD.
43: Generate the partition for hibernation using the
44: <tt>/usr/ports/sysutils/tphdisk</tt> utility from the
1.189 steven 45: ports collection.
1.275 ian 46: The hibernation partition is required to be a MS-DOS partition at
1.184 grunk 47: the beginning of the harddisk. This partition can be of type
48: 16 bit FAT or FAT32 (as such it is possible that a Windows install
49: lives in this partition).
1.273 sobrado 50: <li>IBM ThinkPads with mini-PCI slots will check PCI IDs against a
1.115 nick 51: built-in list of "allowed" devices, and thus will not work with
52: third-party cards. This behavior can be changed by using the
53: <tt>/usr/ports/misc/tpwireless</tt> utility from ports BEFORE
54: inserting the third-party card. This utility sets a "magic bit"
55: in the BIOS to disable this check.
1.200 steven 56: <li>In order to get the full native resolution of the LCD screen on some
57: laptops, Intel i8x5/i9x5 chipsets can be adjusted using the
58: <tt>x11/915resolution</tt> package. This software changes the
59: resolution of an available vbios mode. It patches only the RAM
60: version of the video bios, so the new resolution is lost upon
61: rebooting.<br>
1.216 steven 62: Note that the 915resolution port is only available since 4.0, and
1.200 steven 63: that it supersedes 855resolution, which is still mentioned in a number
64: of entries below.
1.278 matthieu 65: Since 4.3, the intel 2.x driver doesn't need those hacks anymore.

1.283 ian 78: <li>OpenBSD 4.4-current works (late November, 2008).
1.275 ian 79: Some bsd.rd kernels spam message like "pckbcintr: no dev for slot 1"
80: making it hard to type, but the live kernel does not give these.
81: <li>Must boot GENERIC.MP; the Atom 270 CPU is "dual threaded" and
82: appears as a dual-core CPU (non-MP kernel fails to boot
83: due both to an ACPI allocation issue and a panic if you disable ACPI).
84: <li>X works out of the box with no config file
1.283 ian 85: (Intel 82945GME Video, 1024x600). Exernal monitor works if connected
86: when X starts up; changes resolution to 1024x768 to synch with most
87: external monitors.
1.275 ian 88: <li>Touchpad and both buttons work.
89: Fn+F7 disables touchpad for use with USB mouse, as indicated on keytop.
1.284 ! ian 90: <li>Built-in "SuYin Acer Crystal Eye webcam" works fine but only

1430: <li>OpenBSD 3.8 works.
1431: <li>Graphics card (ct65555) works fine with X.org.
1432: <li>PCMCIA tested with EtherPrime network card.
1433: <li>USB with ASUS CD-RW works.
1434: <li>Sound card (Yamaha OPL3-SA3): exactly the same things as with
1435: the Toshiba Tecra 8000 must be done (disable sb, change wss IRQ to 5
1436: and make sure drq matches BIOS settings). But even after that the
1437: output volume cannot be set (no outputs.* fields at all exist).
1438: This problem is mentioned in the ym(4) manual. If you disable wss and
1439: enable the sb driver instead, volume can be set between 0-128, but
1440: play.rate, play.encoding etc. cannot be altered.
