USB mouse with PCMCIA wireless (wi(4)) cause lockup

2012-08-03 Thread Ludwig Mises
I have an older laptop that I recently upgraded from 4.9 to 5.1. The laptop works fine (I'm sending from it now) as long as I don't have the USB mouse and the PCMCIA wi(4) attached. When they are both attached, eventually the system locks up and does not respond (no panic, just does nothing).

You tried to go back... (3.8-current - OPENBSD_3_8_BASE which corresponds to 3.8-release). If you want 3.8-release, the easiest thing to do will be to wait for the actual release, and then install from scratch. Are you saying that the snapshot of 10/14 is 3.8-current? If so, my bad. Let me

2005-10-16 Thread Ludwig Mises
You did not report any problem in a decent way. I'm almost 100% sure you created the problem yourself by not following the proper upgrade path. This is very probable. Actually, it gets more complex than this... I installed the snapshot from 10/14 and after rebooting the kernel wouldn't boot.

At that point, I had to boot bsd.old because it simply refused to boot. Based on the incorrect assumption that the snapshot was pre -release I decided to download the kernel from 3.8-release and install that. The kernel now booted but wi didn't work. I started looking at the differences
