I'm having some problems related to XFree86. I think that bug is not dead yet. Any try to make X work, will result in freeze or panic. "XFree86 -configure" results in an immediate system panic, startx results in a blank screen and a reset button press. Fortunately after searching google groups i found a trick that made X's problems stop. Inserting return; between these lines (in line 291+-): u_int cr4save; mrd = sc->mr_desc; so: u_int cr4save; return; mrd = sc->mr_desc; Is there any secondary effects for this ? The weird part, is that X was working 3-4 days before, problably X's problems start after a make world. I installed 4.6.2 and it was working fine, then after 1 or 2 world rebuilds, problems start to appear. I'm running STABLE AMD XP 2000 ASUS A7V333 - BIOS 1007 Abit G4 MX 440 Santos To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
