When I recompiled the kernel with option SOFTUPDATES, being the only change i first did /usr/sbin/config -g KATANA then changed to the compile dir and then did make depend then make then make install. but the make didn't take very long at all. should I have done a make clean first? But now I am trying to see if there is a command I can give to query softupdates to see if it is running.the message returned said it was enabled but my experience with error messages is such that this could mean enabled but not necessarily running or enabled and running.....
