I made the transition on my laptop from 3.3-RELEASE to 4.0-CURRENT about six months ago, so my experience wouldn't help you much, unfortunately. However, I would just like to say that I'm very happy with my 4.0-CURRENT running with a 3Com 3CCFE574BT PC-Card. :-) > Also, what condition (I know, I am asking you to read the future) do you expect > the transition to be like at the end of the month when 4.0 -release comes out. Should be fairly easy, if you do it the cvsup/make world way.. there's a lot of different thorns here and there so I'm not real sure what it would be like once 4.0-RELEASE goes out. -- Will Andrews GCS/E/S @d- s+:+>+:- a--->+++ C++ UB++++ P+ L- E--- W+++ !N !o ?K w--- ?O M+ V-- PS+ PE++ Y+ PGP+>+++ t++ 5 X++ R+ tv+ b++>++++ DI+++ D+ G++>+++ e->++++ h! r-->+++ y?
