Bruce: I previously reported that my ThinkPad T41 was not affected by this problem. I was using 5.2.1-RELEASE. Yesterday I upgraded to 5.2-CURRENT as of 2004.07.06. The laptop now panics on startup. See http://www.langille.org/ibm-thinkpad-t41-2004.07.06.patched.trace.jpg FWIW, the above system has been patched with the code provided by green in http://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=921840+0+current/freebsd- current (I think that is the correct URL, but cannot verify it as the website is down). I'm working on getting a serial console going, but I'm finding my options limited. There is no serial port on this laptop. -- Dan Langille : http://www.langille.org/
