What have we here? First boot attempt with FreeBSD 14.1 aarch64 on a Thinkpad T14s gen6, running a Qualcomm Snapdragon X Elite processor.

A few next steps, update the BIOS and other firmware blobs, mess around with some dtb files, poke and prod, iterate as usual.

    @[email protected] ah good thinking! I’ll keep an eye on your progress! I thought I read somewhere that Qualcomm was working to mainline drivers in Linux, or at the very least @[email protected] are working on a Linux laptop using Qualcomm’s chips1. Maybe there will be some work there you can reference for BSD as well!
