Cisco Aironet MPI350 Fix

[Fulano Tal]

Mr O'Brien,

 

I gave up of 8.0-RC3 a few days ago because I was unable of fix a missing /dev/agp,

but I got better after reading "freeze up a few seconds about once a minute",

just after restart a frozen pc.

 

I start to storm again but the only thing I know is:

a) slackware agp nod makes no sense

b) obscure halts during lilo are happening

c) frost login prompts broke with my freebsd zippy cowsay fortune fun

 

I need some clues or better, a breakpoint hint.
