Re: Problems with STABLE on X23 thinkpad.

That could  be my  problem, but  I'm not  really sure...   I originally
installed  4.6.1p2, but  I've used  cvsup and  rebuilt everything  since
then...   My supfile  is tracking  4.x (I  think: "*default  release=cvs
tag=RELENG_4").  Is there  a way to figure out exactly  which version of
FreeBSD I'm currently running? uname -a gives:

# uname -a
FreeBSD pheonix.tammer.net 4.6-STABLE FreeBSD 4.6-STABLE #3: Thu Aug 22
20:03:33 PDT 2002     [email protected]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/PHEONIX
i386

Thanks for  the advice so  far...  If I can  get this fixed,  then we'll
have another FreeBSD convert on our hands.
