Polling and SMP is only a recent thing, as is polling support for the bge. I would try disabling that. In terms of seeing why its crashing, http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/developers-handbook/kerneldebug.html Basically, make sure makeoptions DEBUG=-g #Build kernel with gdb(1) debug symbols is in your kernel config add dumpdev="/dev/da0s1b" # Device name to crashdump to (or NO). dumpdir="/var/crash" # Directory where crash dumps are to be stored to /etc/rc.conf assuming da0s1b is your swap. Install the new kernel and reboot. When and if it crashes again, gdb -k kernel.debug /var/crash/vmcore.0 type bt full from the debugger and post the results. ---Mike
