 HI,

Well, I upgraded from 2.05 to 2.1 last night. Only problems I had was that
the Matshushita CD-ROM driver would not compile (something about NMAT??). So
I commented it out of my kernel configuration.  The only other thing that
happened was that the services file got truncated to 5 entries. What a
surprise when telnet and Popper were not working! 

Fortunately, I DID MAKE A BACKUP OF ETC. So I just copied the old services
file to the etc directory. I hope this was okay?

I assume the upgrade option on the CD-ROM copied all the new src files to my
hard drive, or should I have selected a Full Installation from the NEWBIE Menu?

I have tested Xinsides X-Server and a few other programs and have had no
problems or core dumps or anything of that nature.

I guess the install also updated my mt program, but I cannot get the
'retension' command to work.  I get an unknown command error. Is there an
update to this, as I have seen E-mail about this command posted?

Should I upgrade all my ports to the 2.1 versions or is it okay to use the
2.05 ports I originally installed?

Any suggestions, advice, etc. would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Gary
