Eg. > if ((hwrpb->rpb_variation & SV_ST_MASK) <= SV_ST_ALPHAPC164_500) Sounds better. We may also want to remove EB164 from the handling.

The best would be to test the other systems wethers it's needed and if yes if it works. -- B.Walter COSMO-Project http://www.cosmo-project.de ticso@cicely.de Usergroup info@cosmo-project.de To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message
