The method in which we kick the AP's to wake them up might not be quite right. We have some hacks to handle erratic behavior on older CPU's (P5's and PentiumPro's) that perhaps the P4 chips don't like. Could someone with one of these boards try an SMP kernel from current? Peter has done some changes related to PSE and PG_G on current that might have an effect. Also, could people try using 'options DISABLE_PSE' and see if that happens to make a difference? -- John Baldwin <jhb@FreeBSD.org> <>< http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ "Power Users Use the Power to Serve!" - http://www.FreeBSD.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
