I changed over to 3.0-current about 6 weeks ago. Have "make world"'ed once since then. System was got funky about the 3rd week in November with a new kernel. Used cvs to checkout /usr/src/sys from November 9 and restored proper behaviour. Am running a Dec 9 kernel now with only one problem with an Archive Anaconda tape drive (doesn't work). My DDS-2 tape drive works perfectly. Between semesters sounds like a perfect time to try 3.0. Be sure you have a good backup first. As always, YMMV. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@nospam.hiwaay.net ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.
