is not a real problem, but : On my laptop (Thinkpad i1400/most recent BIOS) *all* is runing fine (display, sound, internal modem (lucent), suspend/resume, auto-shutdown on power-button, X, pccard,...), except : with ACPI loaded: 1) internal clock drifts without "kern.timecounter.hardware=i8254" in /etc/sysctl.conf; documented issue, not realy a problem (I think). 2) `systat -vmstat` do not work! I receive the message "The alternate system clock has died! Reverting to ``pigs'' display." also `top` and similar programs can't be able to display instantaneous cpu load ! ( reports 0% CPU all times) without ACPI, systat & top works fine I tested -current with GENERIC (built uesterday) and my custom kernel (GENERIC striped nonexistent devices) from dmesg : Copyright (c) 1992-2002 The FreeBSD Project.

Any idea ? Note: the 'systat' problem apears on 4.7-stable if I build a custom kernel with "options USER_LDT" Thanks -- Antonio Torres antonio.torres@newspace.net.br To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
