It appears that the system has some issues with the AML code; it writes directly to certain I/O ports which are in reality owned by the system; the ACPICA module protect against this. The methods which fails then causes certain devices not to be enumerated; see http://cvs.opensolaris.org/source/xref/usr/src/uts/i86pc/io/acpica/osl.c#osl_io_find_perm Casper _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
