I have an X61T that works great with 9front. The T61 is also a good choice (almost identical hardware to the X61T, but with no tablet and a 14" 1280x800 screen). Some caveats: - There are no known working Mini PCI Express wifi cards - apm is not functional Hardware stats on the T61: % cd '#ec'; for(i in *){echo $i '=' `{cat $i}} *msi = 1 bootargs = local!/dev/sdE0/fscache bootfile = 9pccpufi e820 = 0000000000000000 000000000009d800 0000000000100000 00000000bf6b0000 0000000100000000 000000013c000000 monitor = vesa mouseport = ps2intellimouse nvram = /dev/sdE0/nvram vgasize = 1280x800x32 % cat '#'P/archctl cpu Xeon5000-series 1995 pge pge on coherence mfence cmpswap cmpswap486 i8253set on cache default uc cache 0xc0000000 1073741824 uc cache 0x13c000000 67108864 uc cache 0x0 4294967296 wb cache 0x100000000 1073741824 wb cache 0xbf700000 1048576 uc cache 0xbf800000 8388608 uc % cat '#'P/irqalloc 3 0 debugpt 7 0 mathemu 8 0 doublefault 9 0 mathover 14 0 fault386 15 0 unexpected 16 0 matherror 50 18 clock 51 19 lapicerror 63 31 lapicspurious 72 1 kbd 80 11 ether0 88 11 hda 96 6 floppy 104 11 usbuhci 112 10 usbuhci 120 14 sdC (ide) 128 10 sdE (ahci) % cat '#'P/ioalloc 0 f dma 20 21 i8259.0 40 43 i8253 60 60 kbd 61 61 i8253.cntr2c 64 64 kbd 70 71 rtc/nvr 80 8f dma a0 a1 i8259.1 d0 df dma 1f0 1f7 atacmd 2b0 2df vga 3c0 3da vga 3e0 3e1 i82365.0 3f0 3f5 floppy 3f6 3f6 atactl 3f7 3f7 floppy fff fff dummy 1860 187f usbuhci 1880 189f usbuhci 18a0 18bf usbuhci 18c0 18df usbuhci 18e0 18ff usbuhci % cat '#'c/config # pccpuf - pc cpu server with local disk dev root cons arch pnp pci env pipe proc mnt srv shr dup rtc ssl tls bridge log sdp thwack unthwack cap kprof fs ether netif ip arp chandial ip ipv6 ipaux iproute netlog nullmedium pktmedium ptclbsum386 inferno draw screen vga vgax mouse mouse kbd vga sd audio dma floppy dma aoe uart usb link segdesc devpccard devi82365 apm apmjump ether2000 ether8390 ether2114x pci ether589 etherelnk3 ether79c970 pci ether8003 ether8390 ether8139 pci ether8169 pci ethermii ether82543gc pci ether82563 pci ether82557 pci ether83815 pci etherdp83820 pci etherbcm pci etherec2t ether8390 etherelnk3 pci etherga620 pci etherigbe pci ethermii ethervgbe pci ethermii ethervt6102 pci ethermii ethervt6105m pci ethermii # etherm10g pci ethersink ethersmc devi82365 cis etherwavelan wavelan devi82365 cis pci ethermedium netdevmedium loopbackmedium usbuhci usbohci usbehci usbehcipc audiosb16 dma audioac97 audioac97mix audiohda misc archmp mp apic mtrr uarti8250 uartpci pci sdaoe sdide pci sdscsi sd53c8xx pci sdscsi sdmylex pci sdscsi sdiahci pci sdscsi led sdodin pci sdscsi led sdvirtio pci sdscsi sdloop vga3dfx +cur vgaark2000pv +cur vgabt485 =cur vgaclgd542x +cur vgaclgd546x +cur vgact65545 +cur vgacyber938x +cur vgaet4000 +cur vgageode +cur vgahiqvideo +cur vgai81x +cur vgamach64xx +cur vgamga2164w +cur vgamga4xx +cur vganeomagic +cur vganvidia +cur vgargb524 =cur vgas3 +cur vgasavage vgat2r4 +cur vgatvp3020 =cur vgatvp3026 =cur vgavesa vgavmware +cur ip tcp udp ipifc icmp icmp6 gre ipmux esp rudp il port int cpuserver = 1;
