Hmm, that's news to me, since it's currently running on my box with *NO* problems. trout:/home/sup % uname -a FreeBSD trout.sri.MT.net 2.1.0-951020-SNAP FreeBSD 2.1.0-951020-SNAP #0: Mon Oct 23 22:30:37 MDT 1995 root@trout:/usr/src/sys/compile/TROUT i386 trout:/home/sup % uptime 12:16PM up 13:05, 3 users, load averages: 1.09, 1.18, 1.16 > And so on.. Grrrrrrrr! That's *really* strange. I'm using an external modem connected to cuaa1 which is a serial port with a 16550AF. I don't know what else to tell you. I'm also running a getty on /dev/ttyd1 for occasions on when I kill the link and want to login and re-start it, but I don't think that would make a difference. I haven't recompiled anything on my box and it works, although I'm in the process or re-building things as we speak to install directly from source. Nate
