I was one of the people having 'hard-lock' problems. I have not had a single unexplained lock since I upgraded my BIOS to the latest, version RU, and did another makeworld. I can't say which fixed the 'hard-locks', the BIOS upgrade, or changes in the kernel. ACPI does not appear to work on this motherboard. I have to disable it. The attached asl file gives errors when I try using iasl on it. Anyone have suggestions for the correct fixes to it? > I ran continuous make -j16 buildworlds to see if I could break it, > but no luck (or very good luck, depends on your perspective ;-) > > -- >| / o / /_ _ wilko@FreeBSD.org >| /|/ / / /( (_) Bulte > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
