One page in the BIOS setup is dedicated for Power Management (standard AWARD BIOS 4.51). Power Management is set to "Enable" Second option is "PM control by APM" I tried both option (Yes/No), but no difference. Most other options are set to Disable (HDD power down, Wake Up events, etc.) Maybe this is an early revision of the chipset. The board is from mid 1998. I try to find an unused disk drive and install Windows on it to run the ACPI validation test suite. But this will take some time - you may expect results at the end of this week. The installed BIOS version was specificially released to allow a Windows 2000 ACPI mode installation. -- Daniel To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message

No problem, Tried -CURRENT (from yesterday), esp. src/sys/dev/acpica/acpi_timer.c,v 1.9 If I boot without debug.acpi.disable="timer" clock and rtc interrupts run at half the normal rate (50 clock/64 rtc instead of 100/128) with all the usual results: - System time (via gettimeofday()) runs at double rate - Tons of calcru: negative time of ... - Even more of microuptime() went backwards - negative running time of some processes if cpu bound processes are run at the same time.

CLK_CALIBRATION_LOOP only iterates calibration of the i8254 and TSC timers relative to the RTC. None of the clock calibration stuff is very useful. All the clock frequencies depend on the temperature, so their values at boot time are only slightly more related to their values at run time than their values at a random time.

Re: ACPI: Clock problems in -current
Say set debug.acpi.disable="timer" in the bootloader and see if you still get this. I've already got one report of system time going twice as fast as it should; I'm unsure what's going on here (I don't grok the timecounter code as well as I should, I think)... You could also try building a kernel with CLK_CALIBRATION_LOOP defined and then booting with -v (without the timer disabled). This might be instructive (I don't know for certain that it'll calibrate the ACPI timer, since it may not have been probed yet).
