Re: ACPI Problems: IRQ conflicts on USB controllers and SATA controller

Thanks, I tried but no luck... :(

For boot-v with empty loader.conf:

interrupt                          total       rate
irq1: atkbd0                         410          1
irq9: acpi0                     17173212      50959
irq14: ata0                         1296          3
irq15: ata1                           47          0
irq18: uhci0 uhci+                     2          0
irq22: fwohci0+                        1          0

Didn't get that...

That's what I understood from the documentation, but if both handles 
IRQs then I don't understand how they can coexist.

OK, I tried this and have found two possible outcomes: System freezes 
after GEOM: new disk ad0 or a fatal trap 19:

Fatal trap 19: non-maskable interrupt trap while in kernel mode
Instruction pointer = ...
Stack pointer       = ...
frame pointer       = ...
code segment        = ...

processor eflags    = interrupt enabled, resume, IOPL=0
current process     = 34 (acpi_thermal)
trap number         = 19
panic: non-maskable interrupt trap

This has happened with either acpi_thermal or acpi_task_0 as current 
process. There is nothing that seem to determine how booting will fail.

The ASL is here: http://www.locolomo.org/src/acpi/custom.asl just in 
case I messed up. What I understood from your description was that all 
the IRQ declarations should be

   IRQ (Level, ActiveLow, Shared) {1,3,4,5,6,7,10,11,14,15}

Tried that but no change. I have added the dmesg etc to the same path as 
the previous: http://www.locolomo.org/src/acpi/

Thanks for taking your time, Erik
