I have D620, it has Core Duo  T2300  @ 1.66GHz. I'm running RELENG_6.

- suspend/resume - suspend works, resume doesn't, leads to push the 
power button to reboot.

- bge0: <Broadcom BCM5752 A2, ASIC rev. 0x6002> mem 
0xdfcf0000-0xdfcfffff irq 18 at device 0.0 on pci9
bge0: firmware handshake timed out
miibus0: <MII bus> on bge0
brgphy0: <BCM5752 10/100/1000baseTX PHY> on miibus0
I think I'm using Pyun's patch here.

- audio - works with recent ariff's sound/snd_hda binary driver for 
RELENG_6 (recording is not working, probably I have to check latest driver)

- agp0 at pci0:2:0:  class=0x030000 card=0x01c21028 chip=0x27a28086 
rev=0x03 hdr=0x00
    vendor   = 'Intel Corporation'
    class    = display
    subclass = VGA
I'm using here mnag at FreeBSD.org/anholt at FreeBSD.org's 945GM support agp 
patch and latest xorg-server-6.9.0_5. I also use 915resoluton to set the 
resolution to 1280x800. mplayer -vo xv can play in full screen.

- mouse - works in X with moused started before starting X.

- Onboard wireless doesn't work, no driver. I'm using orinoco gold a/b/g 
combo pcmcia card.
none2 at pci12:0:0:        class=0x028000 card=0x00071028 chip=0x431214e4 
rev=0x01 hdr=0x00
    vendor   = 'Broadcom Corporation'
    device   = 'BCM4310 UART'
    class    = network
