So I have a question: that sysctl has to be =1 by default? I mean if I have that issue with it and my laptop, maybe I'll not be the only one with that problem. Well I'm sure there is a good reason for that default setting. Perhaps we could write somewhere that setting may lead to hangs with some hardware :) Marc PS: btw kern/42262 can be closed :) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
