What line did you add? # The flags takes the following meaning for apm0: # 0x0020 Statclock is broken. # 0x0011 Limit APM protocol to 1.1 or 1.0 # 0x0010 Limit APM protocol to 1.0 # If apm is omitted, some systems require sysctl -w kern.timcounter.method=1 # for correct timekeeping. I find that device apm0 at nexus? flags 0x20 works like a champ for my board with bios v1008. Compile in apm support AND flag the statclock as broken. and yes you need apm enabled in the bios as well. simply having it in your kernel and not turning it on in the bios is not enough. dont forget to cd /dev ; sh MAKEDEV apm0 just in case Anders Andersson writes: > * Aaron Smith (aaron-fbsd@mutex.org) [990619 21:42]: > > > > don't downgrade, just try this patch from Tor Egge. it worked great for my > > P2B-DS (bios rev 1008). > > > > Aaron > > I have a P2B-DS (bios rev. 1008) running 3.2-STABLE also. > > I have read the threads in this list but I have not tried Tor Egge's patch > yet.
