I rebuilt my kernel with bpfilter and IPFIREWALL enabled ...
I noticed when I reviewed the boot time messages in /var/log/messages
that FreeBSD wanted to set the timing via CLK_USE_I586_CALIBRATION first,
then CLK_USE_I8254_CALIBRATION then finally old method.  It had Hz frequencies
listed for each, looked like CLK_USE_I586_CALIBRATION had the best resolution.
The OS seemed to resort to the 'old method' since I hadn't specified either
parameter in my kernel config.  I do have a AMD K6-200 installed, and I assume
I can use the CLK_USE_I586_CALIBRATION.  How/where in the kernel config file
do I specify this unknown parameter since I can't find it in the "Complete
FreeBSD" book anywhere?  How do I turn it on????

Mahalo!!!
