Kris, I don't think putting anything more than a pointer to books/handbook/kernelconfig-trouble.html in the FAQ would be sensible, and I'm not sure that would be more than just needless bloat either. It's hard to find "your" question in the FAQ by visual scanning already. FAQs are piles of documentation snippets nobody bothered to streamline into proper documentation, which in the case of FreeBSD is the books and articles. Please find a place for this in books/handbook/kernelconfig-trouble.html. -- If you cc me or remove the list(s) completely I'll most likely ignore your message. see http://www.eyrie.org./~eagle/faqs/questions.html
