This sounds like a BIOS issue. Are you using ACPI? If so, can you provide the output of 'acpidump -t' along with a dmesg? If you aren't using ACPI, can you provide the output of 'mptable' along with a dmesg? -- John Baldwin _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-smp To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
