Hi Doug,

All source is from the CD's I have not upgraded(cvs) at all

I did compile about 20 ports before making the kernel.
things like x, xcontrib, ice, enlightenment, ssh, tcp_wrapers, trafshow,...
.(from ports). and the distrubition files came from ftp.freebsd......

I will try cvs today and see if it makes a difference.

Keith
