In Freebsd11.0, it has arisen for me every time that I load xfce. It generates an mtrr error as well. As it is pointed out here, the variable fails to reset. I had not wanted to trouble you in this technical forum, but is there any w= ay for a "user" with enough experience of Freebsd (5 years), vi, and Unix to e= nter into some file and repair it? I am frightened to do so without guidance. So, if possible, would you be kind enough to provide specific instructions, starting in root (this is, x@y:/ #) and with the correct file path, to the = file or files in question, and what to do when vi filename be invoked? This would help many people. Many thanks. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
