known problem with certain programs freezing in state "poll"?

playing an mp3 for a short while, FreeBSD freezes solid, (no panic) top running in another window shows it to be in state "poll" when this happens. Cheers Kelvin. [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message

loader / loader.old install behaviour suggestion

2001-01-20 Thread Kelvin Farmer
oader it tries /boot/loader.old before failing, or if the install process fails to install the new /boot/loader that the move of /boot/loader to /boot/loader.old is undone. Just my 2 cents, since i was just hit by this problem. Thanks Kelvin Farmer To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

ty. 8) Just a note, the mcd driver still works fine in current, but needs the options COMPAT_OLDISA. I ended up using an old Mitsumi 2x for awhile when a faster cdrom drive bit the dust.

fault while in kernel mode ... (if useful I can copy down the rest of this panic) It doesn't have a pci bus, so my guess is that it dies probing the isa bus ???
