I think I completely misinterpreted your question :) I can't actually remember directly why I did that :) I think it was probably because the win modem in my computer shares an IRQ with 8 other devices.. If the ltmdm driver is loaded before any others it will grab that IRQ for it's own use and nothing else will be able to attach properly (eg USB, ethernet). --- Daniel O'Connor software and network engineer for Genesis Software - http://www.gsoft.com.au "The nice thing about standards is that there are so many of them to choose from." -- Andrew Tanenbaum To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
