Your NetBSD Laptop

[IdOp]

I recently got a lowish-end laptop, the HP 2000-240CA.

It has an AMD E-350 processor, which is designed for low power consumption. It does seem to run pretty cool. It doesn't have a numeric keypad.

Below I'm attaching dmesgs for NetBSD amd64 current, and also for Linux 2.6.38.7 x86_64.

I will post an OpenBSD dmesg in the OpenBSD Laptop Thread.

Some items of note that are not (yet) supported by NetBSD are:

* Radeon HD 6310 graphics (but VESA driver is fine)

* Realtek card reader

* Realtek RTL8188CE wireless

NetBSD 5.1 - had to compile a custom kernel due to limited memory. No X11 as I'm running this as an IPv6 tunnel router.

Interface re0 is an additional cardbus gigabit ethernet card.

This is some kind of unbranded Asus laptop I bought from my roommate. Had trouble installing the OS I usually use (OpenBSD) and NetBSD seemed happier with it than the other ones I tried (FreeBSD and Debian). The wireless seems to more or less work (iirc I installed over the wireless card, which wasn't possible in FreeBSD or Debian), but I've been using a wire because it seemed a little flaky (don't remember off hand why). I see some errors in my logs I don't understand and haven't investigated yet because I'm using the machine only minimally: "Feb 4 14:31:27 felix dhclient: send_packet: Input/output error"

I wonder what's in this machine that's made it so problematic. Someday I'll try to look into why OpenBSD choked on it.

Before I recognized that the OpenBSD bootloader was causing trouble on a very old ECS A900 desknote (Via C3 cpu and Sis video) I tried NetBSD 6.0.1-patch and had trouble with xorg. Apparently xf86-video-sis requires the sis-drm module which is not enabled in the generic kernel. The thought of pulling down the kernel source, compiling a custom kernel and then building a lightweight desktop on an 800mHz Single core cpu was overwhelming.

Cross-compiling on a more powerful machine could be considered.

I have a question about nVidia and NetBSD, if I have a nVidia card, it is IMPOSSIBLE for me to use X11 on my computer with NetBSD ?
I have a GTX 765m and I know that nouveau can work with this card but... does nouveau work on NetBSD ?

Taylor Campbell (@riadstradh) has been working hard on getting DRM/KMS, the kernel graphics drivers from Linux 3.15 ready. It supports many cards like the Intel, up through Haswell and many Radeons. He also imported Nouveau code, which would make recent nVidia cards work; it compiles and links, but it is very much a work in progress.

Very interesting to hear ! I dream to be able to use it on my laptop then I can bring NetBSD everywhere with me !

nVidia is starting to be interested with Nouveau open-source driver, a French guy I know was working with a guy from nVidia and this guy told him that. To be confirmed

Here goes my first post!

Hopefully people will find this useful despite the age of these platforms. Although they only have a fraction of the power of modern machines, they still can do a lot when running efficient lightweight software. NetBSD really works well on these compared to many alternatives, at least for the odd tasks that I have used them for.

I recently inherited some old-ish (but barely used) netbooks from some relatives who have since started drinking the Apple Kool-Aid.

One is an Asus Eee PC 900 preinstalled with a stripped-down custom Xandros Linux.

The other is an Acer Aspire One ZG5 preinstalled with Windows XP Home (way past EOL).

The software on both is horribly outdated, but the hardware is in great shape, upgradable, and seems more than capable for meeting my needs with modern Unix-like operating systems.

Grabbing the first three available live distributions I could find (Kali Linux, Jibbed NetBSD, FuguIta OpenBSD), I took these out for a spin. Gladly, all of them run well with solid performance and minimal bugs.

I was going to ask some questions about obscure network functionality in NetBSD, but I eventually figured it out. IMO, Jibbed NetBSD by far had the best overall network setup, where everything would "just work" right out of the box (some unusual networks had some issues with wpa_supplicant, but Jibbed/NetBSD came preinstalled with the right samples to work even in those environments, so I got it working everywhere without undue trial and error).

As a topic for the OpenBSD forum, FuguIta networking would have worked almost as well out of the box, although it forces some manual configuration and manual fetching and loading of wireless drivers, ostensibly for licensing reasons (probably because they are only available as binary blobs). Getting the wireless driver to work at all on Linux was a real PITA at first, but once that was up, it came with NetworkManager to handle the rest smoothly. That may be a good thing to bundle with later/other releases of Jibbed NetBSD if feasible.

ACPI support seemed partially working on the ZG5, but it did not work right for reboot or shutdown (I didn't try suspend). Oddly enough, for the Linux-based Eee PC 900, the modern NetBSD install supported ACPI better than the modern Linux.

Both netbooks have at least one built-in reader for card media, which work under Linux, but do not fully work under NetBSD. NetBSD detects the reader in the Eee PC 900, but it doesn't seem to detect the media. I don't recall it detecting anything in the ZG5.

Also, NetBSD has full support for the ZG5 trackpad, in case that matters to anyone. None of the other live distros had that. Full trackpad support was not available for the Eee PC 900 with anything I tried other than the native Xandros installation.

I can post some dmesg output and other specs if anyone is interested, but for now, I can report that NetBSD (at least NetBSD 7.0 from Jibbed) is alive and well on these versatile netbook platforms.

{I may eventually update the laptop thread on the OpenBSD forum here. That thread already has both machines, but the posts are old and lack some hardware support that is now present in OpenBSD at least as of 5.8.}

ASUS eeePC 1225B
Modifications from default config:
- replaced wifi card with an eBay-bought Atheros AR9285
- added Sony-Ericcsson F5521gw by soldering USB/SIM-adapter to one of the USB ports on motherboard. Put it under plastic cover over RAM chips. Connected to USB ports by about 15cm wires. Simple DIY hack.
- Replaced mechanical drive with a Sandisk SSD.

Pretty weak netbook got new life.

NetBSD seems to work fine on it.

Writing this from an Acer TravelMate 426LC equipped with a shining 2.4GHz Pentium 4-M, 512MB RAM, a 40GB IDE HDD, AC97 SoundBlaster Pro, ATI Radeon 7500, and running NetBSD/i386 9.0 with a XView/OpenWindows desktop

[dekloper]

It would be very interesting to have laptops with support in the BIOS IOMMU/VMX-bit and without the need for its hard hack to activate hardware virtualization!
Who knows and uses such laptops as an xen hypervisor?

This is the first BSD I've got to work on this machine. I suppose FreeBSD would work with the proprietary nvidia driver but I didn't want to be tethered to that, so I've been running Slackware instead. NetBSD 9.0 is working well except that video acceleration failed to initialize as you could see in the attached Xorg.0.log file. So until I figure that out (or more likely, upgrade to a later release where someone has solved it), I reboot to Slackware to watch DVDs each night.

This is also the first time I've run ZFS on a machine. It's nice but it seems like deleting many files is slow. I should look more closely.

Back on NetBSD 9.2 on a Thinkpad T420, all working well.

Hardware I had gave up the ghost a few years ago. I like the changes made since the 7.x days.

Attached is my dmegs and Xorg log

[bsd-keith]

HP G62 laptop - 2.13GHz i3 - 4GB ram - 120GB DoM - DVD-RW

Just installed NBSD 9.3 & all seems well, wifi found (Intel), only minor complaint, fan is on constantly - (need to find a solution, tried searching FAQs, & on here, no luck so far).

I also have it installed on two of my HP T520 thin clients, now being used as a desktop computers - 1.2 GHz dual core - 4G ram - 16GB M2 SSD - USB wifi (urtwn) - working well.

May well try the ARM image on one of my Raspberry Pi too - (4B/4GB or 400).

EDIT: Apparently there is no control over the fan in acpitz as of yet(!) - looks like 'Net' will be getting replaced on my G62 - I can't stand noisy computers....

[Sehnsucht94]

I bought a used T460 few months ago, alongside a Thinkpad Docking Pro Station (quite useful for the little it costs).
Running 10.0_BETA at the moment. What works:


- wifi (iwm(4))
- accelerated graphics (i915drmkms(4))
- webcam (uvideo(4))
- suspending/resuming
- backlight control
- bluetooth (ubt(4))
- touchpad (pms(4)). ok two-finger scrolling, ok two-finger emulation.
- multimedia / function keys
- SD card slot (rtsx(4))


What doesn't work:
- nothing fortunately, and I picked a Thinkpad for this very reason.
