I run -STABLE, and was pondering over a problem I've been having with a USB device when I saw your problem. Could you try something? After you get that error above, move the device to the another USB port. I can manage to panic my system by doing that, except I'm doing it with a USB gamepad. I'm curious if it'll do the same for you. The way that I've come about that error is different from how you got there, though. I have a problem where any time I access my IDE hard drive (where Windows is -- FreeBSD is on SCSI disks), the USB gamepad I have plugged in goes nuts and FreeBSD eventually shuts the USB port off. I know it isn't a FreeBSD-specific problem, because exactly the same "nuttyness" happens when I'm in Windows. The problem with FreeBSD is, after FreeBSD has disabled the USB port, if I remove the device and then plug it back in the same port, I get the same error you've posted above. I can plug/unplug forever and still get that error, as long as I'm using the same USB port. But as soon as I plug it into the the other USB port on the root hub (my only "hub"), the system panics. Nick? :-) I'd have a crashdump for Nick or someone else to look at already, but I found out the hard way that the amr(4) driver doesn't take crashdumps. I then tried using a SCSI ZIP drive for the crashdump after labeling it and pointing dumpon(8) at it, which worked fine, until I tried to actually get the crashdump off of the drive after the crash. dumpon(8) won't accept the device (/dev/da0s1b in this case) so that I can use savecore to get the dump back off of it, but it accepted it to put it on it! Anyone know why that is happening? I don't remember the exact error dumpon was giving me at this time, sorry. I'll get it tonight if this doesn't ring a bell for someone. :-) -- Chris Dillon - cdillon@wolves.k12.mo.us - cdillon@inter-linc.net FreeBSD: The fastest and most stable server OS on the planet.
