i am running freebsd 4-stable (made from sources from jan 28) on
dell inspiron 5000e (bought jan 11 2001), w/ intel pentium iii 700
(speed step tech). timecounter.hardware is identified as i8254.
prospects of running/enabling apm seem dim on this system. when
apm and apmd are enabled in /etc/rc.conf and kernel has...
device apm0 at nexus? flags 0x0020
#device apm0 at nexus? #flags 0x0020
#device apm0 at nexus? disable flags 0x0020
...below is the panic message that comes up (taken old fashioned
way, on paper by pen) on (re)booting...
kernel trap 9 with interrupts disbaled
fatal trap 9: general protection fault while in kernel mode
instruction pointer = 0x58:0x3319
stack pointer = 0x10:0xcaa68c88
frame pointer = 0x10:0xcaa68c90
code segment = base 0xc00f0000, limit 0xffff, type 0x1b
= DPL 0, pres 1, def32 0, gran 0
processor eflags = resume, IOPL = 0
current process = 146 (apm)
interrupt mask = none
trap number = 9
panic: general protection fault
...i tried w/ and w/o...
kern.timecounter.method=1
...of course, there is no problem if apm is not enabled
in rc.conf regardless of it being enabled in kernel config.
oh, i also tried changing 'power' settings in bios to no
positive effect.
is 'apm' achieveable?
