Scratch that, I still get the error messages. For some reason they didn't
show up for an hour or two. They usually show up immediately.

Dear all,
I have a Compaq DL380 with an integrated Compaq Smart Array Controller.
I have succesfully managed to install the FreeBSD 4.2-20010104
and everything is fine but the DAT drive which is not detected.
The DAT is connected to the same Controller as the RAID system.

There is, I think, at least a bug in subr_bus.c that might cause this,
although, this is just a hunch. I've not been able to explain what's
happening yet.
What is happening is that device_probe_child sets the device class, and
in case of an error unsets it. But in this case attach (instead of

I've had so many problems with this product that I dumped it for
an Apex Outlook. I couldn't be happier.
Since I donated the Belkin to another group, I've heard that they
were able to send it in

I have no Zyxel modem, nor do I have any specs for what the device. So
you might be better off asking on the usb-bsd mailing list:

Well, this is going to seem like a rather strange question. I understand
that Xbox is simply IA-32, however I have heard that the Xbox has a
special ROM that boots Windows CE, to ensure that people do not purchase
the Xbox for the sole reason of running FreeBSD or any other operating

Hi, Gang.
In 4.1.1, I have a pretty simple need for a kernel thread or two, but
I'm having problems with kthread_exit(). The problem is that the thread
goes zombie after I kthread_exit in it, but it never gets reaped. Since
I'm doing this during a MOD_UNLOAD phase, if I happen to do a `ps -ax'
