Interesting...sched_ule discussion

Hi, Just saw the talk about sched_ule, nvidia driver, moused and pauses... I was running -current up until about a month ago, using the nvidia driver, sched_bsd on a dual ht xeon, with htt disabled. Mouse interactivity with moused was terrible - I actually thought the mouse was faulty. Getting

All, A constant in one of the kernel header file seems to have been renamed. Change PCIR_HEADERTYPE to PCIR_HDRTYPE in the NVIDIA code and all will be well. I have tried this myself and all is well. Cheers, Brendon ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

ACPI, PS/2 Mouse vs Compaq 2105US (presario 2100)

2003-08-03 Thread Brendon and Wendy
All, Recently started trying to get freebsd 5.1+ to work on my laptop. With 5.1 and above, I've found that unless ACPI is disabled, I cant use any PS/2 mouse - external or the internal synaptics pad. Boot -v reveals that psm0 cannot grab an interrupt. Boot logs are available here:

All, Some progress to report - ran top -S as suggested, and could see the two idle threads, one per physical CPU. The second idle thread was halted but on cpu #1 (the second cpu). sysctl machdep.halt_logical_cpus=0. Both CPU threads are active, occupying ~100% of thier respective cpus. Run my

2002-12-23 Thread Brendon and Wendy
All, Just a quick report - testing 5.0 rc2 on a dual xeon 2.0G (Supermicro p4dce+). Seems that if I compile the kernel with CPU greater that I486_CPU, the machine will boot, startx, be usable for a random period of time and then lock up. I dont know if the lockups occur in single CPU mode or
