I do get the occasional (once every few days) lock-ups, but it was getting better. My kernel is from Feb 28 12:27. After that I can't compile a kernel, getting a: mp_machdep.o: Undefined symbol `_Xforward_irq' referenced from text segment *** Error code 1 during linking the kernel. I haven't seen an answer to that problem yet. Best regards, Ben To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-smp" in the body of the message
