Or is it > necessary to explicitly cvsup RELENG_2_2, in addition? If you want to stay -current with -stable (*grin*), then you need to CVSup. If you're happy with the current bits that you have, then stick with them. Note, there are known suspend/resume bugs in the code you have, but they don't occur very often. > If the cvsup is necessary, I'm a bit confused, as I thought that the > SNAPs were by definition the latest RELENG_2_2 build. Yes, but bits change everyday, so the SNAPS are a particular machines latest build. Your machine can build it's own 'unofficial' SNAP if you CVSup the sources. :) Nate
