report: FreeBSD on Lenovo Thinkpad X230

[Adrian Chadd]

Hiya!

So now that I've completed my first round of "is this actually usable
as a laptop", I'd like some help chasing down the backlight and
suspend/resume issues.

Any takers? Pretty please? I'll help make sure iwn(4) works really
well if I can get the rest of this works out!
