Hello everyone, I've just switched to FreeBSD from a dying windows box, and I'm seeing some weird non-deterministic behavior with regards to the ehci driver. Forgive my newbishness. Roughly 50% of the time the bootup proceeds normally. The other half of the time the boot screen stalls at: ehci0: <Intel 82801EB/R (ICHS) USB 2.0 Controller> mem 0xfebffc00-0xfebfffff irq 23 at device 29.7 on pci0. Oddly, the device loads successfully some of the time. I can't tell if I'm doing anything differently. I usually need to reboot until luck shines my way. This occurs on the LiveCD as well. I've tried disabling the ehci device and recompiling the kernel, but instead I was greeted with a whole bunch of link errors. I built from kde under sudo, is that bad? I'm not even sure if I want to disable it, because I'm pretty sure that my Dell 2405 FPW monitor is a USB 2.0 hub that I'm running my mouse and keyboard off of. On that run I also disabled a lot of other stuff, so I tried to build a test kernel off GENERIC. This crashed my system sometime during compilation, triggering an auto-reboot! I would love to know how to boot this machine without rolling ehci dice every time I boot. I could give more extensive boot logs if I knew how. Any help would be greatly appreciated Dana
