I believe I have identified r262226 as the offending commit. Maybe the flags integer is set to a bad value before the calls to resource_list_alloc(). My spare system is currently recompiling r262221 of both world and kernel, and I hope to confirm this assumption in a few hours. If all goes well, I intend to move forward to the latest revision of stable/8, back out the change done to sys/dev/pci/pci.c in r262226, recompile world and kernel, install the kernel, and if successfully, I'll install world as well. > In addition there was some problems with the USB subsystem, so I > disabled USB in the BIOS for now.

All I/O devices work as they should. Maybe the USB issues were also caused by r262226.

Confirmed, stable/8 r264519 with r262226 backed out does indeed work on a Dell OptiPlex GX260, BIOS A09. Any chance anyone would like to dig deeper into the matter?
