(It needs to briefly note the alternative to recompiling a kernel ... kldload) I seem to remember that someone was working on a major overhaul of this chapter ... so _before_ I generate and submit a patch, is there any major in-progress work on this chapter that would make it silly for me to submit a 5-line patch for a chapter that's going to be completely rewritten anyway? -- Bill Moran Potential Technologies http://www.potentialtech.com
