Howdy all, some of you may remember I was asking about getting FreeBSD2.1.0R
to work properly on a IBM thinkpad750.  Well, thanx to a few people I have.
I decided to upgrade to 2.2-SNAP-960612 and I have since gotten it working
with Xfree86 and the syscons serial driver.  If anyone else is interested in
it I can put a generic kernel up and my source diffs.  

I have not tested this kernel on anytying but the TP750C, 'cause thats what
I've got.  I'd be interested to see if it works on the 755/760 if anyone
has one they'd like to try my kernel out on.

Thanx,

Alan Palmer
