My machine at work (AMD1700+) has same problems - here is it's dmesg IRQs: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ dmesg | grep -i irq ioapic0 <Version 0.3> irqs 0-23 on motherboard rl0: <Accton MPX 5030/5038 10/100BaseTX> port 0xec00-0xecff mem 0xdfffff00-0xdfffffff irq 19 at device 8.0 on pci0 uhci0: <VIA 83C572 USB controller> port 0xe000-0xe01f irq 21 at device 16.0 on pci0 uhci1: <VIA 83C572 USB controller> port 0xe400-0xe41f irq 21 at device 16.1 on pci0 uhci2: <VIA 83C572 USB controller> port 0xe800-0xe81f irq 21 at device 16.2 on pci0 pcm0: <VIA VT8235> port 0xdc00-0xdcff irq 22 at device 17.5 on pci0 atkbd0: <AT Keyboard> irq 1 on atkbdc0 psm0: <PS/2 Mouse> irq 12 on atkbdc0 fdc0: <Enhanced floppy controller> at port 0x3f0-0x3f5 irq 6 drq 2 on isa0 unknown: <PNP0f13> can't assign resources (irq) drm0: <Matrox G550 (AGP)> mem 0xdf000000-0xdf7fffff,0xdfefc000-0xdfefffff,0xdc000000-0xddffffff irq 16 at device 0.0 on pci1 While doing this: $ cd /tmp && tar jxf /usr/ports/distfiles/openoffice.org2.0/OOo_1.9m130_source.tar.bz2 During it's entire run I ran this as well (my computer did nothing else during that time): while(true); do date >> vmstat.log && vmstat -i >> vmstat.log && sleep 1; done The logfile can be found at <http://www.grimstveit.no/jakob/files/temp/vmstat.log>. Are you able to parse anything usable from it? Thanks in advance. If you need anything else, please just ask - I am very eager to find the cause of these problems. -- Jakob Breivik Grimstveit, <http://www.grimstveit.no/jakob/>, 48298152 Besøk Newsergalleriet: <http://www.newsergalleriet.no/> No violence, gentlemen -- no violence, I beg of you!
