Eg, I have: > > console none unknown off secure > ttyv0 "/usr/libexec/getty Pc" cons25 on secure > ttyd0 "/usr/libexec/getty std.9600" vt100 on secure Okay, I was using the console device. If switched off and using ttyv0 (that I had to create in the ttys file) it seems like the problem is gone. I browse lynx while yes running and nothing is sent to syslog. Seems you guessed right. (also, yes was sending outputs in both serial console and vga console) As for the serial communication problem, I don't beleive in a cabling one. The SRM console works fine, the booting process of FreeBSD is working fine. As soon as vinum kicks in, I am missing chars. I get the "l" from the login prompt... but the message for my cdroms saying that the medium is not present is very clear (this mesage comes after the prompt). It's as if kernel messages were sent correctly but processes are messed up... Normand. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message
