Correct, these updates will appear in 6.2. how does RELENG_6 differ from my setup of RELENG_6_1? RELENG_6 is the branch from which 6.x releases are built. During the 6.1 release cycle, the RELENG_6 branch was copied to create the RELENG_6_1 errata branch, from which 6.1-RELEASE was actually built. New features and bug fixes for 6.2 go into RELENG_6, but only security and critical bug fixes will go into RELENG_6_1. -Jonathan -- Jonathan Noack | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | OpenPGP: 0x991D8195 signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

It refers to the fact the that ABI / API's are stable, in that they aren't changing, and not that code / changes themselves are necessarily stable. Everyone does their best to commit stable changes but if your want very well tested -stable may not be for you -release may be a better option. That said if everyone sat on -release issues in -stable would never be found :P Steve This e.mail is private and confidential between Multiplay (UK) Ltd. and the person or entity to whom it is addressed.

But I cannot have direct rendering support: error: [drm:pid41500:radeon_do_init_cp] *ERROR* Cannot initialise DRM on this card This card requires a new X.org DDX for 3D From the source code I found it caused by 'CHIP_NEW_MEMMAP' flag.
