I would assume that the 3.1 branch has the latest revisions though. If you are planning to do a source upgrade you will have an infinitely easier (not to mention safer) time goign to 2.2.8 than to 3.x because of the tremendous changes in the 3.x tree. I'm running 2.2.8-STABLE with a Fast Etherlink XL, no problems.. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- // Alex Perel \\ \\ // // veers@disturbed.net -=- veers@gomad.com \\ \\ shotgun@feh.net // // \\ \\ Disturbed Networks - Powered exclusively by FreeBSD // // == The Power to Serve -=- http://www.freebsd.org/ \\ -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
