Content-Type: text Sender: owner-hackers@FreeBSD.ORG X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Ok - After a short hiatus for Thanksgiving and other holidays, and after deleting my backlog'd 5000+ messages :-) I'm ready to dive in on the daily panic problems. Just F.Y.I. - the problem still occurs, and at least one other person has reported it as well. I'm running 2.1.5-S as of Oct. 17th - I had dowloaded 2.1.6-RELEASE to set up and see if the problem went away; but as soon as I got it home, the 2.1.6.1 release came out - so I have to start over. My questions at this point are: 1) Since I was running a late version of 2.1.5-S, there is little hope that 2.1.6.1 will actually address this - right? 2) Assuming 1) is true - how do we proceed on figuring this out? 3) Would it be better to suffer through this for now, and wait for a more stable 2.2 version to try out (presumably _before_ 2.2-RELEASE was sent out.) - Dave Rivers -
