Grrr. My p90/pci motherboard sitting right next to it is doing just fine :-) Thats what happens when you pick up ratty old used EISA P-60's as test machines :-) Guess I will just have to build on that box with bounce buffers. I wonder how hard it would be to make some of these configuration options soft instead of compile time. I'd like to be able to run the same kernel across several platforms but I can see some options (like bounce buffers) that would be nice to set from a /sysgen.dat file or something. Guess thats my VMS time coming out :-) I am able to do compiles just fine with the latest snap by the way. PS: does anybody have a list of whats good about the new XFree86 dist? Having even more fun than Solaris sysadmins..... mark.h
