That's what I thought, but I also thought it would be useful for me to report what I saw, rather than what I thought I should have seen. :-} > I think 'make buildworld; make=20 > installworld' should fix it. Anyway, thanks for testing! Well, I re-booted again -- in a slightly different environment (one where I have a DHCP server on the net), and didn't see a recurrence of that whine about __mb_sb_limit. (I always do a "make buildworld && make kernel && make installworld" (with appropriate invocations of assorted other things, such as mergemaster).) I tried the Fn+Esc keyboard chord to suspend the machine (from vty0, rather than X); the power LED started blinking, but screen didn't even blank. I then tried to resume the machine (by pressing & releasing the power button quickly); that caused the display to blank, but I couldn't get it "un-blanked." So I flipped to vty2 and logged in (blind) and issued "sudo reboot" (which worked). On reboot, I tried using "sudo zzz" to suspend the machine. That did not cause the power LED to blink, but it did cause the display to blank. I tried pressing & releasing the power button quickly; no noticable effect. I tried using the Fn+F8 keyboard chord to cause the display to show something, and it showed what looked like a strange "test pattern" (sort like a bunch of vertical lines made of hyphens). Pressing the Fn+F8 keybaord chord again powered the machine off again, rather quickly. Apparently the disk buffers were flaushed though, as no file systems were dirty. FWIW, I'm pretty sure this is the same (fairly broken) behavior as I see now. The machine is a Dell Inspiron 8200. Peace, david --=20 David H.
