Was there a time that it went away with kthreads? Huh, I really don't know for sure, because lately I have not followed -current very closely (SMPng stability issues, you know), but I heard from someone that some not-so-distant snapshot doesn't exhibit this misbehaviour. Could I suggest that we provide some sysctl to disable entropy harvesting in syscons mouse code at least until you will solve it properly? -Maxim To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message

Was there a time that it went away with kthreads? I had mouse jerkiness at the same time as I had the sound glitches. Those were explained as a result of SMPNG IRQ latency (IIRC).

/dev/random related mouse jerkiness is again here
Hi, I wonder if anyone noticed that mouse jerkiness caused by entropy harvesting routine is here again (both in syscons and X11), although it was expected to be solved by kthreads, at least on my poor old P133 with PS/2 mouse. -Maxim To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
