Hi!

It seems that acpi_dock driver is not loaded at boot time.
Please add following line into /boot/loader.conf and reboot.
----
acpi_dock_load="YES"
---

I am using a live DVD so cannot use the /boot/loader.conf option but instead did a kldload acpi_dock.

I can undock successfully but I still have problems with redocking the machine :(

Updated dmesg

and cat /var/log/messages

Please let me know if you need any further information.

ps: I have similar issues with the latest 2.6.24 Linux kernels. I can undock successfully once but the machine never redocks properly.
