 Seems reasonable... although I am experiencing some mysterious
panics on a different machine.  It's likely stretching things to 
say they are the same issues... :-)

 I'd have to agree though; as I run FreeBSD on several other machines
without a single hiccup...

 But - My best guesses would also have to include something wrong
in XFree86 with the Matrox Millenium II driver... a wild pointer or
something...  What leads me this way is the fact that 2.2.5 didn't
get the problems; it all started the very day I installed 2.2.6 (which
also had the new XFree86.)
