@AlexVader Sorry for the late answer. I came back to my Slackware after one week of trying FreeBSD. Unfortunately I don't use WiFi. I use DSL cable modem. So I can't answer to your question.

This is the result of the same command used with Slackware Linux: info.product = 'Computer' (string) info.product = 'Intel(R) Core(TM) Duo CPU T2400 @ 1.83GHz' (string) info.product = 'Intel(R) Core(TM) Duo CPU T2400 @ 1.83GHz' (string) info.product = 'ALSA Timer...

I tested HAL with that command: # lshal | grep info.product I tried it with a few FDI files in /usr/local/share/hal/fdi/preprobe/20thirdparty/ directory and without any FDI file. The result was the same in both cases: info.product = 'Computer' (string) info.product = 'AC Adapter'...

Hi Beastie! Nice nick... I tried all the above variants once again restarting HAL with the command: # /usr/local/etc/rc.d/hald forcerestart I did it twice. First time with empty /boot/loader.conf and second time with /boot/loader.conf including these lines: hw.psm.synaptics_support="1"...

I tried FDI file disabling TouchPad. It uses only one merge key so it's relatively simple. I put it in that directory: /usr/local/share/hal/fdi/preprobe/20thirdparty/ I tested it with ten different match keys: <match key="info.product" string="SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad"> <match...

I just discovered an error in my 10-x11-synaptics.fdi file. I put the line defining keyboard layout inside the Linux section. In result FreeBSD ignored that switch. This is the correct keyboard definition: 10-x11-synaptics.fdi <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> <deviceinfo...

I installed on my ThinkPad T60 FreeBSD 7.2 with GENERIC kernel plus a few ALTQ options and I'm unable to force HAL to use FDI files. In result I can't use different devices. I followed that FAQ: Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL) FAQ... I put in /etc/rc.conf file these lines...

After reboot Xorg stopped to load /dev/sysmouse driver and started to load again /dev/psm0 one: (II) config/hal: Adding input device PS/2 Mouse (II) LoadModule: "mouse" (II) Loading /usr/local/lib/xorg/modules/input//mouse_drv.so (II) Module mouse: vendor="X.Org Foundation" compiled...

With the above configuration Xorg loads TouchPad driver but has problems with PS/2 Mouse: (II) LoadModule: "synaptics" (II) Loading /usr/local/lib/xorg/modules/input//synaptics_drv.so (II) Module synaptics: vendor="X.Org Foundation" compiled for 1.6.0, module version = 1.1.2...

I followed these hints: 1. Instead of package synaptics I have installed in my system port /usr/ports/x11-drivers/xf86-input-synaptics. 2. I added two options to /boot/loader.conf: hw.psm.synaptics_support="1" debug.psm.loglevel="4" 3. I updated my /etc/X11/xorg.conf: Section...

I changed keyboard in my old T40 a dozen or so months ago. I forgot since that time that these buttons are a part of a keyboard. Since it's one FRU there is one more reason to associate these buttons with TrackPoint. Thank you Carpetsmoker for the correction.

I see both links and lynx on the third disc. I doubt these programs are also on the first disc. I suppose sysinstall gets these packages from the third disc. I can be wrong. I installed FreeBSD only three times -- the last week. Thanks for the tip. I overlooked it. It's good to know that TXT...

Thank you -- I didn't read it. Now I recompiled kernel and everything works well.

I omitted above some information. I built my CUSTOM kernel with embedded a few ALTQ options but without pf and pflog because both those modules worked out of the box. Now it seems they stopped to work.

I use FreeBSD 7.2 with CUSTOM variant of GENERIC kernel. I added to my kernel a few of ALTQ options required by pf. After the update of the system I encountered some problems with pf... Here are my ALTQ options: options ALTQ options ALTQ_CBQ # Class...

From manufacturers point of view keyboard with TrackPoint is one part and TouchPad with five buttons is the other part. IBM/Lenovo calls each such part FRU. From drivers developer's point of view keyboard, TrackPoint, TouchPad and five buttons are separate devices. Each should be treated...

Here's the answer: How to use it. ThinkPad uses Synaptics TouchPad.

Thank you for reply. I managed to force to work third button's paste function after I put in /boot/loader.conf file that line: hw.psm.synaptics_support="1" It should affect TouchPad but in my case it affected TrackPoint. In my Slackware 12.2 and previous I used specific xorg.conf...

After one week of skirmiches I finally managed to force to work third TrackPoint's button. Scrolling still doesn't work but pasting text works. It's interesting because I achieved it after putting in /boot/loader.conf file that line: hw.psm.synaptics_support="1" It should affect Synaptics'...

Did you manage to use TrackPoint's third button for scrolling on your T400 with FreeBSD 7.1? I'm unable to use mine on T60 with FreeBSD 7.2.
