Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-current@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG This problem is easily reproducible. However to do so, you need a ROM image for an arcade game that the Multi Arcade Machine Emulator emulates as it wont do it without any roms in the directory "/usr/local/lib/mame/roms". I am using xmame installed from the ports collection (/usr/ports/emulators/xmame) on a very recent -CURRENT machine. If I run xmame *before* I get online with user mode ppp (or while I am on the net), the serial ports get hosed and I have to reboot or I continually get silo overflows. This is not right as it happens AFTER I exit xmame !!! Please can someone else reproduce this problem as I'd hate to think its only on the systems I have owned (Pentium 166 and Celeron 300). -- /=======================================================================\ | Work: Matthew.Thyer@dsto.defence.gov.au | Home: thyerm@camtech.net.au | \=======================================================================/ "If it is true that our Universe has a zero net value for all conserved quantities, then it may simply be a fluctuation of the vacuum of some larger space in which our Universe is imbedded.
