I am considering purchasing a ThinkPad X260 for OpenBSD use. I am aware
that inteldrm(4) does not yet support Skylake chips (Broadwell support
is not perfect yet either). I presume wsfb(4) should work decently at
least but I am wondering if anyone currently has an X260 and is using it
for OpenBSD. Is there a way screen brightness can still be adjusted in
some form even with wsfb(4)? I know my X230 has hardware methods for
adjusting brightness but lots has changed with the X240, X250, and X260.
I am also aware that the Intel 8260 wireless chipset does not yet work
(perhaps support could be added to iwm(4) or maybe I can replace the
8260 with a 7260) but I am more concerned about the reports of problems
with xhci(4) with Skylake systems. Has anyone had any experience with a
Skylake laptop and OpenBSD? Thank you.

Bryan
