What's the problem precisely in 4.1? When I tried, the vmware1 build needed sys/i386/linux/linux_util.h; that got folded out of FBSD a little while ago. You can fix it to make it work, but it's hardly a problem since vmware2 seems to do the job just fine. jan -- jan grant, ILRT, University of Bristol. http://www.ilrt.bris.ac.uk/ Tel +44(0)117 9287163 Fax +44 (0)117 9287112 RFC822 jan.grant@bris.ac.uk If it's broken really badly - don't fix it either.
