(the sym driver has no description at all!!) ps. I have a 53810 card working fine on a 4.1-RELEASE system using the ncr driver. I will obviously have to change to sym(4) when I upgrade it... pps. I vote to nuke ncr(4), and update LINT... perhaps for 4.2-RELEASE... > Responsible-Changed-From-To: freebsd-bugs->groudier > Responsible-Changed-By: sheldonh > Responsible-Changed-When: Thu Aug 24 08:59:15 PDT 2000 > Responsible-Changed-Why: > Gerard, what should we do with this one? particularly important > is how long you expect the ncr(4) driver to stick around in > GENERIC. :-) > > http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=20689 > -- :{ andyf@speednet.com.au Andy Farkas System Administrator Speednet Communications http://www.speednet.com.au/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
