2026-04-07 The Laptop Integration Testing project

Call for testing: introducing the Laptop Integration Testing project via the FreeBSD Foundation

Looks quite interesting, especially the tooling around it. If you have a laptop with FreeBSD, highly suggested!

Addendum:

Here is an example session for running it. (Note that the run_hwprobe.sh calls into some python scripts which explains the need for python). 


~/src/git/freebsd-laptop-testing $ make
./run_hwprobe.sh
