Did you ever get >a dump/backtrace of the panic? Did you have drm-kmod installed? I never got a dump of the panic, and in fact I only got the panic two or maybe three times (in about two months). The panic only happened at the initial startup of XDM, so if I got past that then I could run okay for long stretches without a problem. I was also tangled up in other problems with current the same time, and usually I would just take the easy way out and drop back to my April 23rd snapshot of -current. > > I added that line, rebooted, and now XFree86-4 has no problem > > initializing agpgart when XDM starts up. > >Can you still make it panic after adding agp? Well, I haven't yet, but then I haven't been running it this way for all that long. I would be happy with agp added to the generic kernel, but then I'm one of the people who would benefit from that... :-) -- Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad@gilead.netel.rpi.edu Senior Systems Programmer or gad@freebsd.org Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute or drosih@rpi.edu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
