Just to follow up, since sysupgrading to the latest snapshot (on 15.3) I cannot reproduce this problem. (All packages were updated too.) Also my tentative test case, which resulted in the same symptoms, also now functions without issue (fyi: run "vblank_mode=0 glxgears" and drag the resulting window around wildly being sure to get it to go into/out of fullscreen by hitting the edge of the desktop). So now just have to decide if I continue using Firefox or revert back to Iridium (or Chrome). Decisions, decisions ... :) Any ideas what I can or should do about my "dubious" kernel messages? E.g. "0:31:5: mem address conflict 0xfe010000/0x1000" What does that "0:31:5:" indicate? Or the "not configured" messages like these for example: > "Intel Core GMM" rev 0x00 at pci0 dev 8 function 0 not configured > "Intel 300 Series Thermal" rev 0x30 at pci0 dev 18 function 0 not configured > xhci0 at pci0 dev 20 function 0 "Intel 300 Series xHCI" rev 0x30: msi, xHCI > 1.10 > usb0 at xhci0: USB revision 3.0 > uhub0 at usb0 configuration 1 interface 0 "Intel xHCI root hub" rev 3.00/1.00 > addr 1 > "Intel 300 Series Shared SRAM" rev 0x30 at pci0 dev 20 function 2 not > configured > "Intel 300 Series MEI" rev 0x30 at pci0 dev 22 function 0 not configured > ahci0 at pci0 dev 23 function 0 "Intel 300 Series AHCI" rev 0x30: msi, AHCI > 1.3.1 > ahci0: port 2: 6.0Gb/s It seems as if that Intel 300 chip is only partially supported. Maybe that's not a significant problem? Though I worry a bit about the "Thermal" message ... suggesting some temperature sensing may not be working correctly. The other good news is that the new (old) keyboard is working well :-) > uhidev0 at uhub2 port 4 configuration 1 interface 0 "Fujitsu Component Sun > USB Keyboard" rev 2.00/1.05 addr 4 Cheers, Robb.
