Not really. 1) Get the diffs. You will need a CVS repository, or use the cvsweb interface at http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi to extract the diffs. Note that mlx.c, mlx_disk.c, mlx_pci.c and mlxvar.h all changed in this fix. 2) Apply the diffs. Note that if you cut-and-paste from your browser, you may get diffs that contain corrupted whitespace. Always save them directly to a file. 3) Recompile your kernel. ... or if you are using the module, recompile the mlx module. -- \\ Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. \\ Mike Smith \\ Tell him he should learn how to fish himself, \\ msmith@freebsd.org \\ and he'll hate you for a lifetime. \\ msmith@cdrom.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
