I seem to recall that the new T60's feature the ICH7 (or 6) chipset and thus the HDD connects via SATA interface. This may give you issues, though there is a "compatibility mode" switch in BIOS (F1) to make the hdd show up as wd instead of sd. The performance is a bit lower as from what i recall, but it works well. I tested this on one of the first T60's to hit the scandinavian markets, so much may have changed since then.
APM should still work like a charm, though I can not comment on the wifi equipment, to my experiance, it is often intel or broadcom. The wired interface is usually em and they still use a hardware mixer for volume and mute, if I am not mistaken. Some of the newer models have a amber/orange LED in the notch of the screen, instead of the classic white/ice blue one. A new interesting development as well is the hardware slider, that you disable (hot-plug disconnect, USB?) the wifi and bluetooth adapters with, boy can you feel stupid =) The above is based on my observations of 10-15 different type-model varieties, your results may vary. FYI: As I understand, the X40+ family is quire popular among our praised developers. -- JPL On 3/8/07, atstake atstake <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Anyone running OBSD 4.0 or -current on Thinkpad T60? I'm getting one of these and trying to make sure OBSD will run without a fuss. A reply from anyone with T60 <-> OBSD4.0 experience would be much appreciated. Thanks.
