Thanks, Stefan, I checked ncr.c by going backwards from my present version 1.103, one step at a time. 1.101 failed, I am presently using the kernel with 1.100, so the change is from 1.100->1.101. If you could make use of it, I rebooted verbosely, and I would send you that if you wanted, or make any other test you'd suggest. ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Chuck Robey | Interests include any kind of voice or data chuckr@eng.umd.edu | communications topic, C programming, and Unix. 213 Lakeside Drive Apt T-1 | Greenbelt, MD 20770 | I run Journey2 and picnic, both FreeBSD (301) 220-2114 | version 3.0 current -- and great FUN! ----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
