But i've noticed some strange behaviour. I've added snd_ich_load="YES" to my /boot/loader.conf to enable sound in boot time. Reboot machine and everything was working ok. But then i noticed that cooler on my notebook starts more often then without snd_ich. Running top shows that machine is about 15-20% in interrupts. Unloading snd_ich makes top showing interrups about 0-1%. Then i loaded snd_ich by hand (kldload snd_ich) and the problem dissapeared, top shows 0-1% and cooler starts as without snd_ich. I commented this string in /boot/loader.conf and rebooted the machine. Then load snd_ich by hand. Everything is ok! I assumed that it was some strange thing and uncommented string in loader.conf and rebooted. The situation with 15-20% inturrupts repeeted! However kldunload & kldload resolves it. So the only suitable solution for me was to load snd_ich using rc.d Thanks! PS: I have iRU intro 1214 notebook with acpi enabled. -- lg
