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=20
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=20
the complete machine locks without any further information (DDB is=20
compiled in)!

A quick test ans verification with the same kernel config, but SMP=20
support commented out seems to work.

Please can you help? Any further ideas for testing? The BIOS is the=20
last one provided from Gigabye? I only found a Google message in the=20
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
