This is wierd. I just rebuilt and installed a new kernel with a few additions, including ehci and acpi, and the kernel seems to be panicking on startup. In 5 years, I've never had a FreeBSD kernel actually panic on me.
I already have the uhci and ohci devices in my kernel config, I added the ehci in hopes of getting USB 2.0 support. That part seems to be fine: Tn 30 15:59:42 keyslapper kernel: ehci0: [GIANT-LOCKED] Jan 30 15:59:42 keyslapper kernel: ehci_pci_attach: companion usb0 Jan 30 15:59:42 keyslapper kernel: ehci_pci_attach: companion usb1 Jan 30 15:59:42 keyslapper kernel: ehci_pci_attach: companion usb2 Jan 30 15:59:42 keyslapper kernel: ehci_pci_attach: companion usb3 Jan 30 15:59:42 keyslapper kernel: usb4: EHCI version 1.0 Jan 30 15:59:42 keyslapper kernel: usb4: companion controllers, 2 ports each: usb0 usb1 usb2 usb3 Jan 30 15:59:42 keyslapper kernel: usb4: <EHCI (generic) USB 2.0 controller> on ehci0 Jan 30 15:59:42 keyslapper kernel: usb4: USB revision 2.0 Jan 30 15:59:42 keyslapper kernel: uhub4: Intel EHCI root hub, class 9/0, rev 2.00/1.00, addr 1 Jan 30 15:59:42 keyslapper kernel: uhub4: 8 ports with 8 removable, self powered The panic message is as follows (partially) Fatal Trap 12: Page Fualt while in kernel mode CPUID = 0; acpi id = 00 Fault Firtual Address 0x20 Fault code = Supervisor read, Page not present instruction pointer 0x8:0xC0440AEA etc. I had to restart in safe mode, but I can't figure out where the problem is. Any ideas? I had hoped to use the acpi module to monitor system temperature, but I suspect it is the cause of the problem. If so, I'd just as soon remove it. I am aware that some of the acpi stuff is experimental, so I'm wondering if anyone can confirm that this is the problem, or can confirm that the CPU_ENABLE_TCC cpu options work on the Dell Dimension 8300 (P4 3.0G w/HT). My last boot showed some log data on the acpi0 device, but this safe boot didn't. Should I just eliminate it and skip the CPU_ENABLE_TCC option?
