Yep .. I'm not happy with it either. Actually for the first time ever I'm affraid to build and reboot the current -stable kernel because my fxp0 is the only link it has to the outside and because its a remote machine for me. I imagine there are others as well that maintain remote machines and don't really like tampering with network drivers. I bought the fxp card on recommendation because of its stability. Oh well, I'm confident it'll all turn out the right way.. I'll just wait with building a new kernel untill I don't hear anyone complaining anymore and then I'll cross my fingers and try booting the kernel myself. with regards, Stephan -- Stephan van Beerschoten [SVB21-RIPE] stephanb@whacky.net PGP fingerprint: 4557 9761 B212 FB4C 778D 3529 C42A 2D27 "To err is human, to forgive is Not Company Policy" To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
