>Description:
Boot requires disabling the nouveau driver
>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:
disabling the noveau driver enables boot but I would like faster firefox graphics. Similar machine, T61 despite age ran firefox well in openbsd 7.8 but that machine had the intel graphics adapter. I switched to netbsd when that machine died because supposedly netbsd had a noveau driver.
