Altough not my strong side, I tought both Intel processors and Alphas where little-endian. Anyway, I ment no offence to anyone running i386, which indeed would be the majority of FreeBSD users. I simply ment that since there are more i386 users, they would most likely have caught the problem a long time ago. Minor platforms, as I suppose the Alpha is, could have these problems laying around for a long periode of time before anyone discovers them simply because there are fewer people using this platform. I felt the need to clearify this as you seemed to take offence to the way my message was formulated. _________________________________________________________________ Chat with friends online, try MSN Messenger: http://messenger.msn.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
