It was also hidden pretty good on my machine. | | Maybe, somebody else has some better idea. Ok, well I forgot about verbose logging, boot -v or number... 5 at the menu now? I can't boot the 5.2.1 boot cd, it panics with the resoure busy thing or apparently freezes. With verbose logging on it doesn't actually freeze... well it does... but it is something to do with acpi (and it doesn't happen when acpi is disabled, but then it panics because of agp which is my next question) acpi_acad0: acline initialization start acpi_acad0: On Line acpi_acad0: acline initialization done, tried 1 times acpi_cmbat0: battery initialization start acpi_cmbat0: battery initialization done, tried 1 times Then it just stops :) Scroll lock still works and I can scroll about and stuff. As for agp, well.... I just tried that patch I mentioned earlier on a hacked up version of FreeSBIE I made (didn't work all that well) it worked enough for me to tell that the patch fixed my panic though. I got some other odd error about ATAPI_IDENTIFY... but I think this was a bug introduced in -CURRENT recently? Can I make a 5.2.1-R install CD myself with this patch somehow? Thanks!! | | Erich
