Sorry, what code? But there is definitely no problem in building both sc and pcvt into the kernel, is there? Or is it advisable to make kernel with either sc or pcvt, but not both? The manual does not say the sc and pcvt cannot coexist in the same kernel. But all configuration files I've seen on the net are either with sc or with pcvt, not both. I found that the same behaviour was reported as a bug in 2005 in 5.3-release: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=i386/75887 and is still listed as open. thanks anton -- Anton Shterenlikht Room 2.6, Queen's Building Mech Eng Dept Bristol University University Walk, Bristol BS8 1TR, UK Tel: +44 (0)117 928 8233 Fax: +44 (0)117 929 4423
