If yours is not more recent than that, it might be your config or your hardware. I don't crosspost, so I restricted this one to -smp.

It works fine with older (04/04/99) kernels). No comment, I don't use the pn device, didn't even know what it was (do now). ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Chuck Robey | Interests include any kind of voice or data chuckr@picnic.mat.net | communications topic, C programming, and Unix. 213 Lakeside Drive Apt T-1 | Greenbelt, MD 20770 | I run picnic (FreeBSD-current) (301) 220-2114 | and jaunt (Solaris7). ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-smp" in the body of the message
