Hi list,
i'm searching for some informations about the possibility of install Freebsd
on an Acer Travelmate 8005.
In particular i would like some feedback on the current status of ACPI
support on that hardware regarding Centrino support both for wireless and
most important regarding CPU speed stepping. For the first one i've found
this http://damien.bergamini.free.fr/ipw but for the latter nothing useful.
Last but not the least i would like to know if there is something like
laptop-mode tools that are present in linux for energy management.

Thank you all in advance,
Marco Calviani
