It doesn't seem to be a problem to start powerd once X is runnning. Maybe it is something like tuning some delay loop with reduced clock rate, which then isn't long enough with increased speed. -- B.Walter <bernd@bwct.de> http://www.bwct.de Modbus/TCP Ethernet I/O Baugruppen, ARM basierte FreeBSD Rechner uvm.
