  Thanks.

 
 I have loaded 4.6 or .7 on a D430 and don't remember any problems. 
 Printer and serial worked, as did the optical drive I installed
 from. Ethernet and wifi worked on mine but wifi might depend on what
 adapter is in it.  I never tried X or the DVI plug but X on other
 BSDs and UXes has worked fine in the past.
 

Same for me.
I use a DELL 420 (slightly different) with the small docking station
and the larger one with CD/DVD and PCI slots.

No problems - except UMTS, but I don't need it...
Additional PCI-nics: yep.
USB works fine too

wpi0 (Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG) cause _sometimes_ trouble - a
BIOS-setting problem with my 420.

dell latitude d430 + port replicator -- is okay?

[Sviatoslav Chagaev]

Hi,

I want to buy a DELL Latitude D430 + a port replicator (for the DVI and
LPT ports).

Does this laptop work okay with OBSD?

How about the port replicator? Does it need any kind of support from
the OS (e.g. drivers) or is it just an electromechanical contraption?

Thanks.

If you mean a PR01X: The latter. It just works.

if i recall it correctly that is a fine machine.  make sure you dont get
an nvidia one though (not sure they made them but got to avoid them)
