And have you asked on -questions before coming here? If you're running -stable or -current have you asked the relevant lists? Have you submitted a pr? Not being snotty, it's just that by getting all the info needed together, going and asking on freebsd-questions@freebsd.org if they can help and then if they can't, you then go about submitting a pr (man send-pr) and asking either -stable or -current or whichever list is appropriate is a much speedier way to get the right people looking at this and perhaps offering a solution. hackers@ is many things, but it's not a tech support forum so you're not likely to get much help here I'm afraid. Hope that helps and you get a useful answer out of that lot, -- Paul Robinson http://www.iconoplex.co.uk/
