That's great...glad this works!

I can think of two very useful places for this report.  One is the
freebsd-mobile@ list (because lots of folks ask about laptop
compatibility there).  Related to that is a Web page that someone made
up listing the results of booting FreeBSD on different laptops.

Thanks!

Bruce.

PS.  I typically don't put information like this into the hardware
notes because that document is tied pretty tightly to particular
versions of FreeBSD.  I think that laptop compatibility is changing so
rapidly that it'd be too hard to keep the hardware notes in sync with
reality.
