I would update to -CURRENT, but I'm a little worried about my ATA drive not being detected with the new ATAng stuff. :) Not to mention the hastle of having to compile all my userland stuff from source. (You can't use packages with -CURRENT, right? Or am I mistaken?) This isn't a beater laptop. I actually use it for real work. So maybe I'll just wait for 5.2-RELEASE... -- Jesse Guardiani, Systems Administrator WingNET Internet Services, P.O.
