Trying to make use of an old system - Compaq deskpro EN 350Mhz, I ran into the following problem: If you issue a reboot(8) the machine shuts down, but it never comes back. You have to hit the power button off and then back on. Otherwise the machine just sits there, screen blank. The system does shut down cleanly.
A web search brings up similar reports for the EP series on NetBSD and Linux. So I'm aware this is probably a BIOS bug. But I'd still like some workaround. I already tried playing with the BIOS settings (one person reports that changing the disk mode to PIO solved it for him - no luck here). Also toggled the DIP switch to make the machine come back up from a power failure w/o waiting for the user to powercycle. Nothing seems to work. Any suggestions? -- Dan Pelleg _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
