Pretty soon actually.  It looks like the scheduler is stable again,
and it looks like YONETANI Tomokazu may have found the pppoe netgraph
issue.  There have been a lot of bug fixes, especially to the filesystem
and buffer cache code.

I am going to write a little userland utility to manipulate the new
cpu masking technology in the scheduler and possibly also expand the
feature set a little, then I'll roll a new preview.

Matt,

your latest patches seems to have broken DragonFly's ability to run KDE. At 
least my machine freezes after booting with a kernel from today's code.

Reading Sascha's mixer posting, I should add, that KDE is freezing on 
startup while initializing devices, including sound and sound mixer.

Could you try it now with the commit I just made to the mixer ?
