Hi!

I'm just browsing through the PR-database, and found this PR.

I have similar problems with my brand new Gigabyte GA-6VXDC7 mainboard
(2x800 P-III, 512 MB RAM) running FreeBSD 4.4-RC from this morning (Sun 
27th August). APM is detected

....
apm0: <APM BIOS> on motherboard
apm: found APM BIOS v1.2, connected at v1.2
....

and when I enable (apm -e enable) or query (just apm) on the console 
the complete machine locks without any further information (DDB is 
compiled in)!

A quick test ans verification with the same kernel config, but SMP 
support commented out seems to work.

Please can you help? Any further ideas for testing? The BIOS is the 
last one provided from Gigabye? I only found a Google message in the 
Linux context (2000-12-30) whis stated:

.......
apm: BIOS version 1.2 Flags 0x03 (Driver version 1.13)
apm: disabled - APM is not SMP safe.
.......

Is this perhaps a BIOS problem?

Best regards

Lars
