Thanks for the clarification, John.

Is it worth any effort to actually track and solve any of these issues ??

Another aesthetic observation is the alignment of the CPU: line - it would be
nice if the data all lined up nicely with Kernel/Mem/Swap below.

Very minor point though.  Thanks for making this work!

I had a similar problem with r181987 on the Intel DQ965GF desktop board
(http://www.intel.com/products/desktop/motherboards/dq965gf/dq965gf-overview.htm)
1 or 2 weeks ago, and 'hw.pci.mcfg=0' helped to resolve the freeze on
booting.

testing EeePC-1000

Hi All,

I've got EeePC-1000 and here are some results with (the system was
installed to an 16Gb SDHC card):
-----
% uname -a
FreeBSD eeebb.bsam.ru 8.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 8.0-CURRENT #4: Thu Sep 25 03:30:39 MSD 2008

Sound (only output is tested) and all it's hotkeys work, internal
  dynamic is mutted while headphones are got jacked.
Graphics (Intel 945GME) works so far good.
Internal cardreader works fine and boots the OS.

Those are vice-versa, sorry for the confusion.

Did you try 'kldload ng_ubt' ? If it successfully attaches to your
Bluetooth USB device, it'll most likely work fine.

One good news more. ;-)
Kldload seems to be a bit late and nothing happened. But the line
'ng_ubt_load="YES"' added to /boot/loader.conf gave this at boot
time:
-----

ubt0: Interface 1 (alt.config 4) endpoints: isoc-in=0x83, isoc-out=0x3; wMaxPacketSize=64;
nframes=10, buffer size=640

Seems that you were right at your assumption, thanks!

ichwd on ich9 attach failing ?

Does anyone have a board with this chipset where ichwd attaches properly ?

When I try to load the driver I get

ichwd module loaded
isab0: found ICH9 or equivalent chipset: Intel ICH9R watchdog timer
ichwd0: <Intel ICH9R watchdog timer> on isa0
isab0: found ICH9 or equivalent chipset: Intel ICH9R watchdog timer
ichwd0: ICH WDT present but disabled in BIOS or hardware
device_attach: ichwd0 attach returned 6
ppc0: parallel port not found.

the ppc0 error seems normal, as on other boards I see the same error 
and things attach just fine

It is enabled in the BIOS as the box will automatically reboot after 
5 min, since the watchdog is not set by the OS

The machine is a supermicro S3200SHX chipset. wd settings in the BIOS 
below.  If I set the boot watchdog to disabled, it still does not attach

Hello!

I have:

    device     = '(Bearlake) Integrated Graphics Controller'
    class      = display
    subclass   = VGA

It works before the patch and with it. With the patch from dmesg:

I found another bug. The new top doesn't handle newlines in full
commandlines correctly -- if there is a command whose commandline
contains a newline, which is quite common while some compilation is in
