I have a bit of a problem to get my Wacom Graphire3 (USB) to work with

Poul-Henning, do you have a list of GEOM programming info available so
that one have something to start with for example to make Vinum
compatible with GEOM.

Well, I'll look into that in GDB somewhen, when I have time if nobody
else has any idea...
I tried four functions from three different areas of the kernel, and
all crashed, so I didn't bother to try more... But I'll try more
somewhen and see if I find functions which don't cause a panic...
I forgot to mention on rather important factor in this equation:
Er, this is the *only* important factor. IMHO, it made most of the

If vinum means a lot to you, you should do something to get it above
that threshold: start debugging/coding, learn to code if need be,
donate money so somebody else can code if you can't do anything
else.
I don't use vinum so I have no stake in this.

Hi all,
I've noticed a very weird phenomenon with ping which I can't explain.
I have two machines with 2 NICs.
When I started a ping -f with larger packet size (-s 3052) with NIC 1
and simultaneously hammered NIC 2 with UDP using ttcp, I got duplicate
ping replies (on NIC 1, of course). Not
