I assume you mean Nov 7th? If so, there was fix committed for more normal bad VPD data (v1.321 of sys/dev/pci/pci.c)... There is still an outstanding bug of a device that doesn't even properly handle VPD accesses and it hang waiting for a bit to clear... I need to inspect the patch closer before committing.. -- John-Mark Gurney Voice: +1 415 225 5579 "All that I will do, has been done, All that I have, has not."Received on Tue Nov 14 2006 - 16:10:17 UTC
