That work is underway, and something to understand about -current is that it doesn't have to actually work at all times during the interim periods between releases. Now, should 4.0 be on the horizon and the situation still be one where "equivalent functionality" has not been provided by the newpcm driver, we'll revert back to the original luigi driver and continue the experiment in the new post-branch (5.0) current. - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
