Greetz! I have an HP DL145 that I'm having problems with when connecting via serial console. I think it's acpi-related. This is on 6.1-BETA4/amd64 (5.X is the same also) Initially: root@145:~# vmstat -i interrupt total rate irq1: atkbd0 1 0 irq4: sio0 6 0 irq14: ata0 46 3 irq16: bge0 120 8 irq20: ohci0 5 0 irq21: ehci0 1 0 irq22: atapci1 704 46 cpu0: timer 27375 1825 Total 28258 1883 Then I connected its serial to another FreeBSD boxen's serial and ran tip on the other box... then bada-bing!! The 145 seems dead. Doesnt respond to anything (well except for ICMP tho)... until I kill the other boxen's tip process. Then the box is alive again. One thing I've noticed, it sends the acpi interrupts thru the roof: root@145:~# vmstat -i interrupt total rate irq1: atkbd0 1 0 irq4: sio0 16 0 irq9: acpi0 363925 284 irq14: ata0 46 0 irq16: bge0 589 0 irq20: ohci0 5 0 irq21: ehci0 1 0 irq22: atapci1 901 0 cpu0: timer 2559105 1997 Total 2924589 2283 If i disable acpi by setting hint.acpi.0.disabled=1 in loader.conf I do not experience the problem above. Somebody else has experienced this and he's CC'd: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-stable/2005-November/019286.html Is this somewhat related to: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=kern/83671 ? Verbose dmesg is attached. Thanks ;-) cheers mars -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

However, *sometimes* serial consoles work only for input (I can login and check new processes presence on ttyd0, but can not see any messages. Trouble is that this situation is not easy reproducible, and stty state seems to be the same. What is you stop getty on ttyd0 and try to run two tip's?
