Greetings, Thanks to winning a drawing a work I have a Dell Latitude 7490 that I want to use for my daily driver with FreeBSD. I'm new to FreeBSD but have plenty of experience working as a developer on Debian systems. I was successfully able to install 14.2-RELEASE and have wifi working without any issues. I see from the "Laptop Support and Usability Project" that Wayland and KDE with Wayland is the preferred desktop environment, but before I start reading that chapter of the handbook and following along I wanted to ask if there is any information I can capture that would help with the project? At this point there is nothing critical on the laptop so testing isn't a problem as it is easy to install from scratch.
