This is an OpenPGP/MIME signed message (RFC 2440 and 3156) --------------enig34FFA8039EBACBD99F72B524 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hi, I believe this MFC commit: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sys/boot/i386/libi386/comconsol= e.c?rev=3D1.10.10.1&content-type=3Dtext/x-cvsweb-markup broke the speed-setting of the serial console at boot time, for RELENG_6.= At least for me, it doesn't set the speed to 115200 (as specified in make.conf) anymore, it always stays at 9600, even when I put comconsole_speed=3D115200 in loader.conf. I noticed this, when I upgraded from 6.0-STABLE built around december last year, to 6.1-PRERELEASE from last week. The serial console on this particular machine had been working flawlessly for years now... There's a new comment added by the commit in this file that says: /* * Assume that the speed was set by an earlier boot loader if * comconsole is already the preferred console. */ whereas in the previous version it was set (hardcoded) to COMSPEED, which in its turn came from BOOT_COMCONSOLE_SPEED in boot/i386/libi386/Makefile. Anyone know of a way to restore the old behaviour? I'll experiment here with reverting the comconsole.c file to the previous version, to see if that helps, but a permanent solution would be better. :) Cheers, Dimitry --------------enig34FFA8039EBACBD99F72B524 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (MingW32) iD8DBQFEANI4sF6jCi4glqMRA5nuAKCmjAcAIHC6tz/Te52rzJM/fXFeaACeIr0f zmBvB+QLJlpkNIqzZwvTwq4= =YO0M -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------enig34FFA8039EBACBD99F72B524--
