Coming from someone who's spent the best part of last week trying to diagnose various hardware & software problems on NT & Win'95 machines (to almost no avail), I'd appreciate as much verbosity being left _in_ the kernel & FreeBSD as possible... I'm fed up with seeing "Unknown error", or "Unknown errors occured" or "Service Failed" and the like on competitor / other products... Make them only 'if verbose' if you need to - just don't lose them alltogether!... :) -Karl To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
