X-Operating-System: FreeBSD 2.2.6-STABLE Sender: owner-freebsd-current@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Just got a board with two P5-166 (not MMX) and installed 3.0-BETA from 9-30. The system has an Adaptec 2940UW, Matrox Mystique 4MB PCI and an Intel Pro/100B. If I bring the system up in single CPU mode, everything is fine. Starting up SMP, I get the message that the MP table is broken, routing via pin 0. The person who gave me the board, said he had it working with an earlier snap shot and Linux and it was reporting "routing via pin 2" (at least under Linux, he can't remember FreeBSD). The system comes up, but then I get 20-25% of the CPU time eaten by interrupts, everytime the IRQ of the fxp card. There is no traffic going out and almost no traffic coming in (a few broadcasts). systat -vmstat reports 28,000 to 40,000 interrupts on the IRQ of the network card. Any idea what is broken ? -- Regards, Ulf. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Ulf Zimmermann, 1525 Pacific Ave., Alameda, CA-94501, #: 510-769-2936 Alameda Networks, Inc. | http://www.Alameda.net | Fax#: 510-521-5073 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
