I'm 100% sure that was the only change between boots, and it started working again after I reverted the sys/dev/usb directory and rebuilt. (svk is great for juggling patch sets around) That's one of the reasons I briefly suspected the nvidia driver causing problems somewhere, so I removed that from the mix just to be sure. 'blah blah' translates into numbers that mean nothing to me, but they may be useful to someone: Sep 29 16:57:09 kernel: NVRM: Xid (0001:00): 16, Head 00000000 Count 00000ae5 Sep 29 16:57:09 kernel: NVRM: Xid (0001:00): 16, Head 00000001 Count 00000ae4 Sep 29 16:57:11 kernel: NVRM: Xid (0001:00): 8, Channel 00000000 Sep 29 16:57:17 kernel: NVRM: Xid (0001:00): 16, Head 00000000 Count 00000ae6 Sep 29 16:57:17 kernel: NVRM: Xid (0001:00): 16, Head 00000001 Count 00000ae5 Sep 29 16:57:19 kernel: NVRM: Xid (0001:00): 8, Channel 0000001e Sep 29 16:57:25 kernel: NVRM: Xid (0001:00): 16, Head 00000000 Count 00000ae7 Sep 29 16:57:25 kernel: NVRM: Xid (0001:00): 16, Head 00000001 Count 00000ae6 Sep 29 16:57:27 kernel: NVRM: Xid (0001:00): 8, Channel 0000001e Sep 29 16:57:33 kernel: NVRM: Xid (0001:00): 16, Head 00000000 Count 00000ae8 Sep 29 16:57:33 kernel: NVRM: Xid (0001:00): 16, Head 00000001 Count 00000ae7 Sep 29 16:57:35 kernel: NVRM: Xid (0001:00): 8, Channel 0000001e Sep 29 16:57:41 kernel: NVRM: Xid (0001:00): 16, Head 00000000 Count 00000ae9 Sep 29 16:57:41 kernel: NVRM: Xid (0001:00): 16, Head 00000001 Count 00000ae8 Sep 29 16:57:43 kernel: NVRM: Xid (0001:00): 8, Channel 0000001e Sep 29 16:57:49 kernel: NVRM: Xid (0001:00): 16, Head 00000000 Count 00000aea Sep 29 16:58:19 kernel: NVRM: Xid (0001:00): 8, Channel 00000000 Sep 29 16:58:27 kernel: NVRM: Xid (0001:00): 8, Channel 0000001e Sep 29 16:58:51 last message repeated 3 times Sep 29 16:58:51 kernel: NVRM: Xid (0001:00): 7, Ch 00000001 M00000000 D bfef0007 intr 00010000
