Try this patch. This is what I had to do to make my machines work without crashing. If this solves your problem, I would really appreciate it if the people developing the new parallel port stuff would look into it further and perhaps make these probes optional rather then the default. This could become a disaster if it remains a problem through on the next release. -Matt Matthew Dillon <dil...@backplane.com> Index: i386/isa/ppc.c =================================================================== RCS file: /home/ncvs/src/sys/i386/isa/ppc.c,v retrieving revision 1.20 diff -u -r1.20 ppc.c --- ppc.c 1999/02/14 22:02:47 1.20 +++ ppc.c 1999/03/15 21:32:40 @@ -1066,9 +1066,11 @@ /* list of supported chipsets */ int (*chipset_detect[])(struct ppc_data *, int) = { +#if 0 ppc_pc873xx_detect, ppc_smc37c66xgt_detect, ppc_w83877f_detect, +#endif ppc_generic_detect, NULL }; To Unsubscribe: send mail to majord...@freebsd.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
