Several problems with 5.3 STABLE

[Juergen Dankoweit]

Hello and good evening.

Today I made an update of my FreeBSD-System with cvs as discribed in the
manual.
After this procedure I made some ugly experiences:
(*) Using my compact-flash-reader (Siemens-Fujtsu) shows strange
results:

# mount -t msdos /dev/da14s1 /dist
Result:
=======
Feb 19 22:56:01 primergy470 kernel: umass0: Get Max Lun not supported
(STALLED)
Feb 19 22:56:01 primergy470 kernel: da14 at umass-sim0 bus 0 target 0
lun 0
Feb 19 22:56:01 primergy470 kernel: da14: <  > Removable Direct Access

Feb 19 22:56:01 primergy470 kernel: da14: 1.000MB/s transfers
Feb 19 22:56:01 primergy470 kernel: da14: 122MB (250369 512 byte
sectors: 64H 32S/T 122C)

# umount /dist
Result:
=======
Feb 19 22:57:55 primergy470 kernel: umass0: BBB reset failed, TIMEOUT
Feb 19 22:57:55 primergy470 kernel: umass0: BBB bulk-in clear stall
failed, STALLED
Feb 19 22:57:55 primergy470 kernel: umass0: BBB bulk-out clear stall
failed, STALLED
This was shown in /var/log/messages about twenty times
(*) Connecting my DigiKam (Canon Powershot G2) and identifying it is no
problem: it is shown as ugen0-device.
But when gphoto2 is started (gphoto2 --auto-detect -P) the system hangs
and after two minutes it reboots.
(*) X.ORG 6.8.1 needs about 20% of CPU-capacity, with only one(!!!!)
open Gnome-Terminal. Before system update it was only 5% (under FreeBSD
4.10 it needs 1%, it is a P2-266MHz notebook!!!!)
(*) mplayer core dumps with signal 11
(*) opening windows on Gnome-Desktop is very slow and needs about 10
seconds.

Here is the output from uname -a
FreeBSD primergy470.juergendankoweit.net 5.3-STABLE FreeBSD 5.3-STABLE

It is a dual processor machine with 2 x 450MHz P3 and 2GB RAM.

What is wrong with the new update? Is it better to change to FBSD 4.11?

Many thanks for your advice.

Best regards
