Can you list some specific examples? I'm not trying to be a wise-ass, I'm trying to figure out which vendors are using KLDs in general since I've still yet to actually bump into a real-life example of this kind of breakage in the field. I'm not saying that it's never happened, I'm simply saying that I've not seen it and would like some details on such incidents - company name and module type will do fine. - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
