When you're testing the vr driver, is it possible to do it as a loadable 
module, where you could repeatedly compile/kldload/test/kldunload?  Or do 
you have to compile-the-kernel/install/reboot/test?

When I was fighting with vr on my mini-itx board, I was doing it the second 
way, which was a pain.   Tried the first way once, but didn't work (don't 
recall the details at the moment) - wasn't sure if it wasn't possible or if 
I was just missing something.
	
If there is a less disruptive way to test any proposed patches, I'd be 
willing to take a whack at them.
