(and how to change that?) X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list Reply-To: stevefranks@ieee.org List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Fri, 08 Feb 2008 17:04:23 -0000 But there are sites (such as this one: http://www.linux.com/feature/53055) that talk about actually using linux_base-fc8 (which I can't even find on 7.0rc1). How is that possible if the kernel is too old for it?
