That's not entirely true. I've seen an older Linux kernel floating around with MCA support. There might even be a newer one. Perhaps what was done there could be copied by FreeBSD - if there's really enough interest. I don't have much programming ability, but I have a Model 76 (486/66) on which I'd be happy to test things. -Dan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
