[newbsdied]

i have just had this problem today. i have been using openbsd for almost a year. I tried to increase the brightness of my display and it completely turned off the back light on my laptop. I have done this about a week ago with no problems. I have not made any changes to the system. It does not happen with my other OS (windows, fedora). i have been getting hacked by a stalker for a long time now. How do i fix this and find out where the problem is? Even better, if someone can tell me how to trace back where the attacks generate, it would end all my problems. i know it is someone local and i have a good idea who is doing it, but i would like proof. I have a compaq presario v6000 running openbsd, fedora, and vista. openbsd 4.7 has the latest kde. i have firefox, as well. if you need more info, i'll be glad to supply it. if you want to get paid for a traceback, live in Maryland, US, and have extensive know-how, let me know.

Here is dmesg.
