Re: NetBSD as a laptop OS ?



My main requirement, other than a kinda-sorta working browser, is to
have suspend/resume work - I'd like to understand if this is still
possible, with drm etc.

I'm running NetBSD 10.0 in my latptop, but dual-boot with Linux.

Suspend makes my system panic.
I have to disable i915drmkms or it panics while booting. I just use the generic framebuffer.
My Intel wifi card is not supported, but I have a usb dongle that works.
My bluetooth headphones don't work.

Firefox works just fine for me.
Everything else, from a desktop perspective, works fine. I can e-mail, ssh my stuff and read blogs/news.

But anytime I need a working video card or my headphones, I have to switch to Linux.
