The problem we're talking about was a direct result of this PR: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=166656 The commit (MFC) was done to stable/8 and stable/9 in this revision and at this date/time: stable/9 commit: r247335 -- 2013/02/26 stable/8 commit: r247336 -- 2013/02/26 You can see the commit log/messages in the PR. Now let's talk about versions: FreeBSD 9.0-RELEASE came out 2012/01/12: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-announce/2012-January/001406.html FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE came out 2012/12/30: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-announce/2012-December/001448.html So when you say "the issue" for you "began at FreeBSD 9.0", you need to be more specific (uname -a output would be a good start), because otherwise to me it sounds like you're experiencing a *completely* different problem. > Much appreciated, shouldn't this be at wiki? What wiki? How would people know to read it? Using a web search engine like Google? That would return this mailing list thread, as well as the ones I've referenced. There is enough old/outdated/completely and absolutely WRONG crap on the FreeBSD Wiki as is. The Wiki is not the "official source/list of problems" (there is no official source/list -- the mailing lists are, for a decade, have been as good as it gets). -- | Jeremy Chadwick jdc@koitsu.org | | UNIX Systems Administrator http://jdc.koitsu.org/ | | Making life hard for others since 1977.
