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: http://humphrey.dyndns.org/boot.acpi http://humphrey.dyndns.org/boot.noacpi I would just run without ACPI, but the machine is one of these "pesky built for XP" ACPI only machines, and I find that with no ACPI I cant use the built in nic...makes the machine kinda useless. The machine has the latest BIOS as of yesterday. Current was 1-2 days old. I could swear that this used to work with 5.0-current. I've tried the device.hints workaround I saw mentioned to another person reporting a similar problem - assigning atkbd to acpi rather than isa, but this did not solve the problem. Any suggestions? Willing to try patches/hacking as directed. Cheers, BrendonReceived on Sun Aug 03 2003 - 05:28:03 UTC
