I'm looking specifically for the exact time when the kernel > was built Almost every day I csup from RELENG_x and build. The traces of RELENG_8 are gone, so no, unfortunately I cannot give you a uname -a from those days. However, I have a build log file, and I see that I moved from RELENG_8 to RELENG_9 on Friday, Dec 23, 2011. I csup'd at 12:24:26 MST and discovered the failure at 15:41 MST. This "nooptions NEW_PCIB" fix does seem rather tenuous if it is not documented. Wouldn't a better route be something like if (ACPI < 2.0) oldCode(); else newCodeForNewACPI(); so that it will always work for everyone without having to build a special kernel? After all, I went from a working system to a hung system which is not the best upgrade path... ;-) Dan _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable_at_freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscribe_at_freebsd.org"Received on Thu Jan 05 2012 - 18:30:05 UTC
