Last time I recompiled -current was around Feb 15, so I guess I am
running a 961502 snap :-).

You might have to recompile vic since I am running a little more recent
version of -current.

I think you should be able to (cd /usr/ports/graphics/spigot;make) and
it will pick up the spigot library.  If not, you can get it from
ftp://ftp.cs.uwm.edu/pub/FreeBSD/spigot/spigot.tar.gz.  Just copy
libspigot.a to /usr/local/lib and ranlib it.  Another option would
be to run ./configure in the vic directory and it should generate a
version of vic without spigot support.

The new driver is located in the sys subdirectory of the distribution tree.
You will need to install:
	From meteor dist		To your system
	sys/pci/meteor.c		/sys/pci/meteor.c
	sys/pci/meteor_reg.h		/sys/pci/meteor_reg.h
	sys/i386/include/ioctl_meteor.h	/sys/i386/include/ioctl_meteor.h

If you are running 2.1 or 2.1R, you will need to add the 
``options METEOR_FreeBSD_210'' to your configuration file.

The other option would be to sup -current and remake the kernel.

Thanks for the report.  I am glad to hear that things are close to
working for you.
