after doing a CVSup this morning and make buildworld, kernel, installkernel, installworld again i have the following status: fdc0 doesnt get recogniced (conflict with pccard at 3f0). need to find how to change the I/O of the pccard controller. sometimes fdc0 writes cannot reserve I/O range. reboot still hangs the pc after a complete shutdown forever. zzz runs in the same problem. disabling apm doesnt help also with removing apm from the kernel. after changing: rc, rc.i386, rc.nework adding /boot/kernel for kldload, kldstat shows linux emulation is loaded. but the rtc and vmware ko's still prints Exec format error (+undefined lines see later) and doesnt load. except that it runs fine. KDE/X, Samba and everything else looks like running smoothly. best regards, Karl enclosed some lines of messages: Sep 22 14:53:35 notebook /boot/kernel/kernel: fdc0: direction bit not set Sep 22 14:53:35 notebook /boot/kernel/kernel: fdc0: cmd 3 failed at out byte 1 of 3 Sep 22 14:53:35 notebook /boot/kernel/kernel: pmtimer0 on isa0 Sep 22 14:53:35 notebook /boot/kernel/kernel: sbc0: <ESS ES1879> at port 0x220-0x22f,0x388-0x38b,0x330-0x331 irq 5 drq 1,0 on isa0 Sep 22 14:53:36 notebook /boot/kernel/kernel: pcm0: <ESS 18xx DSP> on sbc0 Sep 22 14:53:36 notebook /boot/kernel/kernel: midi0: <SB Midi Interface> on sbc0 Sep 22 14:53:36 notebook /boot/kernel/kernel: midi1: <SB OPL FM Synthesizer> on sbc0 Sep 22 14:53:36 notebook /boot/kernel/kernel: sio4: <Rockwell K56flex plug & play Modem> at port 0x2f8-0x2ff irq 3 on isa0 Sep 22 14:53:36 notebook /boot/kernel/kernel: sio4: type 16550A Sep 22 14:53:36 notebook /boot/kernel/kernel: fdc1: direction bit not set Sep 22 14:53:36 notebook /boot/kernel/kernel: fdc1: cmd 3 failed at out byte 1 of 3 ********* LOAD OF RTC Sep 22 14:53:48 notebook /boot/kernel/kernel: link_elf: symbol lminor undefined ******** LOAD OF VMWARE Sep 22 14:53:55 notebook /boot/kernel/kernel: link_elf: symbol linux_ioctl_register_handler undefined Sep 22 14:54:03 notebook login: ROOT LOGIN (root) ON ttyv0 -- ------------------------------------------------------------ Karl M.
