It's a fact that the VMs at work are for development but they are heavily used by the team. All FreeBSDs mentioned above are 10.2 STABLE. Of course, in all these cases, I adapted the port to compile and test. When you say "the kernel module doesn't work properly", what exactly do you mean? --=20 Mario Lobo http://www.mallavoodoo.com.br FreeBSD since 2.2.8 [not Pro-Audio....
