I am attaching the kernel configuration file and dmesg in case they help. I suspect that **something** changed between 4.1.1 and 4.2 which is when I discovered the problem here. I have been running the same hardware since version 3. I'd send my system to you for testing purposes but would it be enough help if you had root access? It's the next best thing to sending the machine. craig -----Original Message----- From: Andrew Gallatin [mailto:gallatin@cs.duke.edu] Sent: Thursday, March 15, 2001 11:24 AM To: lecn1306@ele.etsmtl.ca; : Kees Jan Koster; craig-burgess@home.net Cc: freebsd-alpha@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Syslog reports weird things Normand Leclerc writes: > Right now, the best example I can give you to produce a console mess is to > use sysinstall or lynx. I've tried both of those things, and I also just did a buildworld with the output going to console as suggested by Kees Jan Koster & I never saw the problem. My setup is as follows: - API UP1000 (dmesg appended) - 4.3-BETA as of yesterday morning, GENERIC +sound drivers +ddb - console on (vga) graphics head - no console customizations via vidcontrol, kbdcontrol, etc. - no screen savers Are any of you who are seeing this customizing the console in any way? Colors, screensavers, fonts, etc? Or are you running a base 80x25 white-on-black console like me? How about kernel config options to syscons? I'd really like to fix this, but if I cannot reproduce it, fixing it is going to be next to impossible.
