I stuggle with HP crap at work - pretty recent and expensive one. FreeBSD just hangs hard during bootup. There is an "official" solution - disable ACPI part dealing with SMP and run OS single-core :) And still BSD shows rather hellish temps. That's why I strongly discourage co-workers, friends and family to buy _any_ HP devices. > Telling HP that they implemented ACPI the wrong way is IMHO useless. They > just don't care. And the notebook is about 6.5 years old. Their standard answer is "Yes, we know. All three users of BSD are indignant". Paul
