Good work! Now plip, which has been broken for ages, works perfectly - no more lockups, spontaneous reboots, panics, etc! To test it I even managed to get X and NFS working over plip line, things which was impossible with oldppbus. Count on my vote to commit it before branch split because IMHO it should be considered as a bugfix rather that a new feature. -Maxim To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
