At the time of the problems, I was using the GENERIC kernel with ahc and ahd compiled in. I have since used todays snapshot, recompiled with minimal drivers, and I've not had another panic. What I have found, though, is that when I tell my BIOS I've got drives on the secondary controller (either Auto or ATAPI device) I get a few of the timeout/resetting messages. Since there's no point in the BIOS knowing about them, I've disabled them - FreeBSD now runs perectly. The only other panic I've seen was a wakeup from acpi sleep mode 2, that was fixed by the patch committed yesterday, and although mode 4 doesn't work, I realise that the ACPI project has a lot of new code combined with buggy hardware to figure out, and it's an amazing implementation of ACPI FreeBSD is getting. -- Bruce Cran To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
