hi!

The observation in the p= ost about it being ACPI is also very valid.

Can yo= u share more specific details about the hardware in the laptop? It looks li= ke I can pick one up cheap on ebay,
and if it's an ACPI probl= em i'm likely going to need to add printf debugging everywhere to give = the ACPI maintainer
some more information. ;-)

Hello,

=3D=3D=3D=3D
One of my old laptops (HP ProBook 6550b) was running FreeBSD
14.0-RELEASE (amd64) perfectly fine, but upgrading to anything higher
results in a boot that hangs at the line:
psm0: model Synaptics Touchpad, device ID 0

A while ago I tried upgrading to 14.1-RELEASE and run into this problem. Back then I decided to wait, hoping this glitch would be ironed out in a later release. But today experimenting with 14.3-RELEASE and 15.0-STABLE from 20251113 I got the same results.

It would be great to find a fix for this and would like to help
troubleshooting this issue. I'm not even close to a kernel developer though, but perfectly capable of gathering all kinds of information (I'= m
a FreeBSD-user since version 4.4) and help testing.
=3D=3D=3D=3D

This is what I posted on the FreeBSD forum. The post is here:
http= s://forums.freebsd.org/threads/hp-probook-6550b-not-booting-14-3-release-15= -0-stable.100065/

The conclusion there was to try again on this mailing list.

I tried kernels 14.1-RELEASE, 14.3-RELEASE, 15.0-STABLE and the most
recent version I tested with is
FreeBSD-16.0-CURRENT-amd64-20251110-dbb34d496708-281771
The problem is still there. It seems the system locks up since scolling back up doesn't work either.

I wonder if anyone is willing to look into this. The offer to help
troubleshooting this and test a solution (if any) stands.

Kind regards,
Michael
