You can either statically compile them into } your kernel or copy GENERIC.hints to /boot/device.hints and edit it } appropriately. Has there been any resolution to this? I've been having this problem ever since the SMPng stuff went into the tree. I have no success in getting my splash screen to work anymore or in changing video modes with vidcontrol. The splash_bmp KLD always reports the following: module_register_init: MOD_LOAD (splash_bmp, c037f824, 0) error 2 I have done a careful comparison of GENERIC.hints and the /boot/device.hints that I made back when it became a requirement. I've searched the archives and come up empty. I also read cvs-all faithfully, and while I have gotten backed up on mail due to a short vacation here and there, I haven't seen any related commits. What have I missed in keeping up to date? -Patrick Patrick L.
