Thanks, that seemed to do the trick. All the necessary code was already
in place, I simply needed a "option PSM_HOOKAPM" in my kernel config file.

Btw, FreeBSD runs beatifully on the Extensa. It has a P-166 and 48 MB of
memory - and after starting the SVGA X server and two xterms, vmstat still
shows 27 MB free memory.
