Hi Polytropon,

If I may refer to one of your posts "Re: advice for buying a laptop"
16-06-08, you write:

"Last year I made a Dell Latitude D630 with FreeBSD 10, and it works
better than my home Aldi PC!"

I also have a Dell Latitude D630.  I was wondering if you are using
wifi on it?  If I recall correctly I had some trouble in that FreeBSD
10(?) wasn't picking up my wifi card.

$ lspci

(output trimmed)

09:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5755M
Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express (rev 02)
0c:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4311 802.11b/g
WLAN (rev 01)

FreeBSD had no trouble with the Ethernet nic but I had no success at
the time with wireless.  Hopefully you can confirm for me that this
has changed.

Best Regards,
Duane Whitty
