However, vmware3 no longer works. I get errors about vmnet1 not existing, yet I have the appropriate entries in /compat/linux/dev. However, I /do/ have a vmnet4097 when I run ifconfig. I notice that ls -ld /compat/linux/dev/vmnet1 shows: crw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 149, 0x00800001 Mar 5 12:49 /compat/linux/dev/v= mnet1 while ls -ld /dev/vmnet1 shows: crw------- 1 root wheel 226, 0x00100001 Mar 5 12:01 /dev/vmnet1 I searched on the mailing lists and eventually found an old PR (http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=3D48608) that seems as though it might be relevant. Any suggestions? Or am I being optimistic in thinking vmware3 will run on -CURRENT? -lewiz. P.S. I rebuilt all of the necessary packages after the upgrade. --=20 I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now. --Bob Dylan, 1964. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -| msn:purple@lewiz.net | jabber:lewiz@jabber.org | url:www.lewiz.org |- --6c2NcOVqGQ03X4Wi Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFASHiwItq0KFQv7T8RAsYdAJ4nA8mDqlf4WLY87l71NWoGOegU7ACgof3o rou5Prj3EUB0ChesQ/bvDJ4= =u3dA -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --6c2NcOVqGQ03X4Wi--
