Yes I ran -current on my 6100 for a while. I also reported the immediate reset when booting with ACPI enabled. I haven't been able to further narrow the problem down, and didn't get a reply from the ACPI folks as well. So I ran with ACPI disabled. I switched to 4.6R a while ago because I got tired of -current after a phase of instability. Note that this is not a complaint, it is just that a released version better fits my needs. I may go back to running -current when I have more spare time. -- Regards, Georg. To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
