No, I don't want to run on a wild goose chase just because it hurts someone's pride to think that FreeBSD might have a bug.

The only thing that changed on this machine was a move from Windows NT
to FreeBSD.  Therefore the source of the problem is FreeBSD.

Despite the fact that making up for hardware problems with
writearounds in the software drivers is a common thing in the
industry.

That would explain the "quirks" coding in FreeBSD, then, wouldn't it? Or is this only bad when other operating systems do it?

So you won't do the testing to prove that it is or isn't a hardware
bug, and thus you can continue pretending to yourself that it must be
software, and thus not your responsibility.

Nobody here knows enough about FreeBSD to even tell me what its messages mean; I don't see any particular reason to knock myself out indulging their baseless conjectures.

Oh for fucks sakes, stop insulting the folks that are offering solutions.
Like I posted before - upgrade your firmware to meet FBSD half way .

How do you expect an OS written for 2005 to play well with shit that was made in 97?

Get a grip, stop insulting us - we're NOT the enemy here. However, YOUare makeing them.

Best regards,
Chris
