Dan,
I think the situation with the "inappropriate ioctl for device" could
be either because of a programming error in the kernel (Source:
Google) or that your bios update changed something around with the way
the graphics card is integrating with the rest of the system. I would
try recompiling the kernel (like you said) to try and see if it fixes
the issue with the EFI Variables and/or fixes the " inappropriate
ioctl for device" problem. If it doesnt fix the ioctl problem I would
try upgrading the kernel incase something has changed that fixes this
problem.

Thanks, Douglas. That's what I was thinking, especially since I had
booted that kernel just before I made the changes in Windows.

hope I'm not transmitting in HTML. Would someone please confirm or
deny?[/OT]
Thanks,
