Re: Silent reboots in head _at_r248550 starting xdm with x11/nvidia-driver

iI am _at_248554 on an AMD64 box with 8 gig of memory, and a 64 bit kernel.
The video is on the motherboard and is a Radeon chipset.  I also
experienced the panic while starting XDM.

I found Shawn's suggested remedy of etting both vfs.unmapped_buf_allowed=0
and kern.bio_transient_maxcnt=512 in /boot/loader.conf allows the box to
boot, XDM to start and everything seems to be working.  It's probably
just my imagination, but it does seem slightly slower in starting
applications.

It seems that the common thing between my situation and Shawn's is the
recent changes to drm.ko.
