hello, sorry to drag up a slightly outdated topic, but i just installed 5.3beta5 and i'm having the same issue. the last time i used freebsd was back in march at version 5.2 and 5.2.1. the issue existed then too, hence trying out 5.3beta5 now to see if it was gone. while it isn't gone, i'm glad to see people are finally noticing the problem as more than just "oh your hardware must be faulty". i ran the following: > An easy way to reproduce these > skips is to run `while true; do sysctl vm.vmtotal; done`, while > playing an mp3. and i get the nice "person being removed from the matrix" effect. haven't yet tried the patch, but i want to get on that asap. can anyone else verify that the patch works? and furthermore, is it going to be worked into the freebsd source post-haste? +;) thanks, - ryan hardware includes: athlon xp 1900+, 768mb DDR, sblive 5.1.
