Anyway, my system died after 2 hours or so of use, after a bunch of: Feb 25 18:05:34 ogoun kernel: ACPI-0954: *** Error: AcpiEvGpeDispatch: Unable to queue handler for GPE[0], disabling event Feb 25 18:05:35 ogoun kernel: -0185: *** Error: UtAllocate: Could not allocate size 18 Feb 25 18:05:35 ogoun kernel: ACPI-0188: *** Error: ExAllocateNameString: Could not allocate size 24 I have no debug information, but I can provide some if needed. BTW, it's the first time I see this with ACPI, I had no problem before with it. I was even able to suspend / resume my laptop (Toshiba Tecra 8000), which seems not everyone's case :) Regards, yann. -- Yann.Berthier@hsc.fr -*- HSC -*- http://www.hsc.fr/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
