what is the status of KMS support in newcons?

Hello all, I was just wondering what the status of KMS support with newcons is? About 6 weeks ago I got some help on x11@ and much was said about KMS (and the lack of support for the 'newer' Haswell graphics). somebody mentioned that one of the problems where the console goes away once you

Hi all, forgive me if I give incomplete information. This is the first time I've created a debugging kernel and gotten a dump after a panic, so I might not have done everything right. Ever since the tail end of July it seems, any time I've tried to burn a CD with cdrecord (cdrtools 2.0.3 from

Best Known Methods for dual booting WinXP + -current

hello all, Having had a positive experience thus far with 5.1-RELEASE and -current beyond that on one of the new boxes I recently built, it is now time to build up the dual-boot system (BSD for me, WinXP for the wife ;). I've read different reports (some from laptop users) about using the WinXP

questions on S-ATA and ICH5 (now owns hardware :)

should new-gcc kernels with -CURRENT still be panic()'ing right atboot?

features of ICH5/ICH5-R supported in -current or 5.1-RELEASE?
