broken's blogDell Latitude D505, with 14.1" screen (1024x768 max), Broadcom 4306 (rev 3) wifi chipset. I have access to an Atheros-chipped (5212) PCMCIA card and an rt73-based USB. I've gotten the last item to work in Etch on an ancient Gateway laptop, so it can be done (used SerialMonkey driver). I'm doing my homework because previous sallies failed miserably. I'm committed to doing this if I can get some expert assistance. For now, I'm forced to run XP to get my work done -- yech! Previous efforts: FreeBSD -- ACPI may never work, and wireless is very iffy. Everything else is just dandy.
