Hi again
I've synchronized the source tree and compiled world + kernel (+ options ACPI_DEBUG)...
I've added this:
debug.acpi.layer="ACPI_ALL_DRIVERS"
debug.acpi.level="ACPI_LV_VERBOSE"
into loader.conf
however the boot messages are the same...
did I forget something ?
I don't really get where is the problem
looking at if_bge.c I can see that it ends up its operation here:
rid = BGE_PCI_BAR0;
sc->bge_res = bus_alloc_resource_any(dev, SYS_RES_MEMORY, &rid,
RF_ACTIVE | PCI_RF_DENSE);
if (sc->bge_res == NULL) {
device_printf (sc->bge_dev, "couldn't map memory\n");
error = ENXIO;
goto fail;
}
unfortunately I'm not skilled and experienced enough to understand and debug the bus_alloc_resource() facility on my own
so I need help :)
Regards
MGP
