Neilson III" Subject: CLK_USE_I586_CALIBRATION Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" X-MDaemon-Deliver-To: freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Reply-To: art@neilson.ddns.org Sender: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk 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!!!
