Could you post a full sysctl dev.cpu and the same with sysctl dev.powernow? Is the lowest frequency the only one which cause that look-up? If you change manually the frequency via a sysctl dev.cpu.0.freq=<something other than the lowest one> will tell us if that's the case. I think anyway that I found what is wrong. I think the 2 processors are doing a transition at the very same time, and it's possible that will confuse the northbridge. I don't have time to write a fix right now. I will post a patch to be tested latter. Thanks, -- Bruno Ducrot -- Which is worse: ignorance or apathy? -- Don't know.
