yes sure.
at the boot> prompt type: boot -c
wait until part of the kernel loads and type:
disable apm
quit
this is explained much better in boot_config(8).

You could test fot the idle loop issue by temporarily disabling

boot. I believe (correct me if I'm wrong0 that apm0 is the source

I've been hesitant to touch -current especially after a
hackathon. Any
idea if the idle loop fix is in the i386 6/3 snapshot?

Actually I looked at the dmesg and I am almost certain that this
machine has the idle loop issue. Try -current or wait until brad@

I've looked into this further and still cannot determine where
the issue lies. Based on some advice, I unplugged the OpenBSD
machine and setup a Windows XP machine instead. The Windows
native PPPoE client was able to download at 5.5Mb/s and the
OpenBSD machine was still stuck at
1.5Mb/s.
