Hello,

 I installed Freebsd 6.1 on an IBM(now lenovo) Thinkpad T40. The dmesg shows
the following -which probably need some config changes.
------------
acpi0: <IBM TP-IY> on motherboard
acpi_ec0: <Embedded Controller: CPE 0x1c, ECDT> port 0x62, 0x66 on acpi0
acpi_bus_number: can't get _ADR
< same message repeated a number of times>
...
ugen0: STMicroelectronics Biometric Coprocessor, rev 1.00/0.01, addr 2
...
---------------

do I need to fix anything for acpi and is the driver for a fingerprint
sensor present in the current distribution?
Details of the fingerprint sensor are given at this link:-

thanks
