We try try to not introduce regressions as we move forward supporting new features and hardware, but unless people put in some effort of their own helping us to test ... You obviously did not put in any effort of your own so why would you expect us to do the work for you? Unless you can provide "*EXACT*" bug reports and show willingness to help debugging them, there really is not much point in this thread. -- /"\ Best regards, | mlaier@freebsd.org \ / Max Laier | ICQ #67774661 X http://pf4freebsd.love2party.net/ | mlaier@EFnet / \ ASCII Ribbon Campaign | Against HTML Mail and News
