I almost shot myself in the foot with the 2 month reversion as there was some library foo that caught me.. I had to install some libraries by hand for some reason.. I was certain I'd had a more recent system, on this laptop but I notice that my kernle.old is from the end of October.. Shows how much I've been using the systems at work instead of my own freebsd systems.. > : > : More info when it comes back online > > I think, but am not sure, this is related to some changes John made to > acpi resource allocation.

All of the ones that only do memory work great. Once I get the machine up again, is ther a date I should aim for to try isolate this problem? And is there any specific information that one would need to help? > > Warner
