You need to compile acpi into your kernel if you wish to use it still. These messages are from the PnP BIOS probe that happens when ACPI is not used. > See attached the complete dmesg. > > > Then I have a question regarding the aPic: I know that my hardware has such a > aPic and under WinXP there were irqs assigned up to ~23. > Is it possible to support that apic without SMP? Yes. As long as you have 'device apic' in your kernel config, APICs will be used to route interrupts even on UP machines if the machine includes an MP Table or ACPI is being used and it contains an MADT. -- John Baldwin <>< http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ "Power Users Use the Power to Serve!" - http://www.FreeBSD.org/
