Chris, After you've booted the kernel, the correct way to load a module that isn't already in the kernel, is to: kldload mpr To check if mpr is loaded, try kldstat -v|grep mpr However, if you've already placed mpr_load="YES" in your /etc/loader.conf and rebooted your device, then you probably need to move into a diagnostic phase.
