But, it was My Bad .... in 4.x on "older" hardware, I never had apm or apci compiled in. With 5.1-RELEASE and this new machine /boot/kernel/acpi.ko is always loaded during boot. Part of my regiment for testing new kernels was always to copy the kernel file to /boot and manually unload/load this new kernel and do a "boot -s" to make sure things were cool. I did that this time too, but the acpi.ko was the OLD one and that's what immediately panic'ed the system. I've since manually tested the kernel and its parts and also done an installkernel operation and things are cool--and my ICH5 AC'97 sound is now supported ;-) Thanks for the hints. -Jr -- John & Jennifer Reynolds johnjen at reynoldsnet.org www.reynoldsnet.org Sr. Physical Design Engineer - WCCG/CCE PDE jreynold at sedona.ch.intel.com Running FreeBSD since 2.1.5-RELEASE.
