Are there currently any plans to add support for any of the FastTrak controllers (FastTrak 33,66,100 etc.)? Also I saw "experimental" support for the Sound Blaster Live card. When would it become "stable" support? I noticed FreeBSD release 4.1 comes with XFree86 3.3.6. Will the next release (4.2) contain XFree86 4.0.1? I am currently using 3.2-RELEASE. I am looking to upgrade my system and install new on another. If support for the above items is coming soon, I'll wait until the next release (4.2). Hardware support set aside, FreeBSD puts all Microsoft operating systems to shame! - Greg Elliott To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
