Noted; and for shure you are not alone. A view from my perspective: Adding more and more doc's, faq's and guides and mention everything everywhere to be shure, to fit the needs of everyone (those reading FAQ first, those working through guides, those only look at *.conf) is error-prone - we then have to reflect changes on every single place - and you pointed yesterday how miserably we failed to update the version number alone on 2.1.2 :) But, if you, or anyone else, wants to write and maintain documentation or specific sections of the available docs, give me a note - every help is welcome. Shortest way in this case, would have been, if you had sent a modules.conf with the comments you'd think are needed. > BTW, within the /etc/modules file, it refers people to seek more modules > from: > http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/leaf/bin/bering-uclibc/packages/ > but this is actually the location of packages, not modules.

This may be the case for some special modules - sourceforge won't be happy with us, if we recreate kernel modules tree in their cvs. kp ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by Sleepycat Software Learn developer strategies Cisco, Motorola, Ericsson & Lucent use to deliver higher performing products faster, at low TCO. http://www.sleepycat.com/telcomwpreg.php?From=osdnemail3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ leaf-user mailing list: [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-user SR FAQ: http://leaf-project.org/pub/doc/docmanager/docid_1891.html
