Hi, Starting with 8.3, I've been experiencing FreeBSD freezing up completely after using firefox for a while. Thinking the problem would go away if I upgraded to 9.0, I did that and I am still experiencing the same freezing up. The mouse pointer freezes, the keyboard freezes (caps lock light will not come on; Ctrl-Alt-F[1-10] does not work etc.). The only way to get the system back is by pressing and holding down the power button. The problem seems similar to: kern/163145 There is nothing in /var/log/messages to indicate a problem. Output of pciconf -lv and uname -a are at: http://www.eskimo.com/~joji/wisdom/ Anybody else experiencing similar freeze ups with 8.3 or 9.0 while using firefox?
