What you expect me to do "constructive" about this? I've submitted detailed report, tested some patches proposed by the Japanese ACPI developers and so on. I do not see what else I could do to get this problem resolved apart from bugging you from time to time. Perhaps you have any better ideas, then please let me know. Also if the problem is as trivial as you are describing, then it is highly unclear why it is not fixed yet (some 6 weeks are passed since initial report). I know several local guys with exactly the same bug (some time ago I've convinced some them to swith to -current and test/report any problems) and it is very sad to see my efforts vanished, especially considering that the source of the problem is located and as you said it is a "trivial" one. -Maxim To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
