I've been having some trouble with nforce motherboard and FreeBSD-5.2.1-CURRENT. The only combinations that I have found to work consistently are disabling ACPI with hw.acpi.0.disabled="1" and either no PM or using apm, or enabling ACPI and APIC disabled with hw.apic.0.disabled="1". This solution would not work for SMP kernel. I'm not sure of the exact problem but there seems to be an irq sharing issue when both ACPI and APIC are enabled. These coexisted with 11/2003 5.1 but as of 5.2.1 there have been problems for me. Onbord Lan, USB, and either ACPI or APIC cannot coexist. Boot with ACPI&APIC, start if_nv (nvnet) using dhclient, USB-OHCI mouse. Use the onboard lan, i.e. open web-browser. USB no longer responds, and onboard lan timeout. No way to restart either without reboot. Both work perfectly if either ACPI, or APIC is not started. The mouse and lan are both on pci0 at irq 10.Received on Wed May 26 2004 - 06:07:03 UTC
