Having gone through yet another series of cvsup - make kernel - panics, I can
now confirm this happens if and only if I have VESA defined. A

vidcontrol -t off

stops the panics. Now I will try to understand what's up, but I should warn you
that I'm not really confident with this part of the kernel yet.

More details: this is an IBM Thinkpad laptop with APM enabled and in the kernel.
As usual, any hint is more than welcome. This used to work...

Bye,
	Andrea
