Hi, My system is usually up-to-date within the hour. Unfortunately, the change to rc busted ldconfig and my system wasn't running cvsup correctly. It took me about 36 hours before I figured out what the problem was.... I'm probably one of the only people who does a: cd /usr/src && make world && cd release && make release and updates all files in /etc/rc, builds a new kernel, and reboots every other day. All automatically. The last few days of commits have played havoc with my system. I sometimes wonder if the code that is pushed is actually tested. That isn't a flame, but I wonder if some of the committers might not be 'over' committed. There have been alot of 'opps' lately. I'm not a committer, so take what I say with a grain of salt.... and I really do appreciate all the work everyone is doing. Yea, I should probably rebuild m3socks to be elf, not aout (I run cvsup through a firewall). Just my 0.02 cents... Thanks! John > John W.
