Hello,

Thanks for your response.
I dont think they are totally unrelated, because when
i try to install XFree86-4 and that particular library
it gets the error messages stated below (one to stdout
and the other to dmesg). All other port installations
work fine. (Before and after the XFree86-4 install)

I orginally thought it was a hardware problem as well.
but to have it fail on two disks with the same sort of
error? that is highly unlikely, and installing
4.8-RELEASE yeilds no errors. fsck doesn't produce any
errors either. And i dont think it is a ports problem
because XFree86-4.3.0,1 works on 4.8-RELEASE.  So this
has left me thinking its either a bios thingy or
something in 4.9-RELEASE kernel that doesn't like my
laptop.


or maybe i jump to too many conculsions?
Hence why i would like some advice on how to trouble
shoot this.

thanks again

This is the post from yesterday with the main error
msg:
