Re: Problem with cvsup hanging ...

:In a cruel twist of fate, I did run cvsup in gdb.  It worked just fine 
:then, though I got *no* information out of it.  How annoying is that? :)  
:So I got /usr/ports updated, but now I have no idea why cvsup wasn't 
:working to begin with.  *grumble grumble*

    Well, by your description it kinda sounds like the laptop is 
    overheating.  If an ACPI boot recognizes throttling then try
    to throttle the cpu down a bit and see if the laptop is more
    stable.  I forget the precise sysctl but it would be somewhere
    in the sysctl hw.acpi section.
