So far the only VMs I've created are running XP and a couple of Linux distros, and I haven't changed controllers. I'll say again that this port has really been a godsend. I've used VMware Workstation on Windows XP in the past, but being able to stick to FreeBSD has greatly simplified my life. Now my Windoze box can go back to being used for the occasional game, as God intended. - Rich -- Richard Kuhns Wintek Corporation E-mail: rjk@wintek.com 427 N 6th Street STE C Receptionist: 765-742-8428 Lafayette, IN 47901-2211 Direct Line: 765-269-8541 United States of America
