But you wanted us to burn that amount for you? Somewhat selfish, no? The dmesg, and the 'machine memory' may have helped the developers as well. We live in a world where information is like gold, the more you have it, the better we can support all hardware out there. Embedded systems are the type of systems that push the envelope of what it means to be "X" (a PC, etc). When you give more information along with your requests you help us out by enabling us to get a better generic view of the world out there, and possibly support fringe hardware in the future by generalizing our code. > I know there are people out there running embedded environments who were > testing 4.1 during -current. And? They may or may not be running *your* hardware. And we may or may not have the information from your hardware to add to our collective list of "weird things" out there. Again, thank you for your support... -- [100~Plax]sb16i0A2172656B63616820636420726568746F6E61207473754A[dZ1!=b]salax
