I actually got tripped up by having Linux emulation enabled and forgetting to remove old modules, but that was fixed quick. All-in-all, I'm not having a rough time at all with the new code. My machine has been up for 7.5 hours now without a hiccup. I DID notice that I can't load X without a hang, which I think is the same AGP problem someone else mentioned. The only other thing I've noticed is top telling me that the CPU is steady at 50.0% system and 50.0% idle. The box is completely quiescent, except for me ssh'd in and running top. vmstat says sy=50 and id=50 as well. If I start a CPU-chewing process (sh -c 'while true; do true; done') the resultant CPU usage in %user seems to come from %system. -- Brandon Hume - hume -> BOFH.Halifax.NS.Ca, http://WWW.BOFH.Halifax.NS.Ca/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
