The modules still failed with agp. But after doing 'rm -r /usr/src/sys' and reinstalling kernel sources, the problem went away. I have a strong feeling that the module compile problem was related to the bad clock setting when I installed FreeBSD, even though I removed sys/compile/... and did fresh configs. Something was probably confused by the file and directory dates of 1919. Anyway, thanks for the help. Now I can start having fun! The reason I got this Alpha is to get some code 64-bit clean in preparation for the new architectures. -Richard ------------------------------------------- Richard Hodges | Matriplex, inc.
