2.6 Changelog
|
|
</h2>
|
|
<hr>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
This is a partial list of the major machine independent changes
|
|
(i.e., these are the changes people ask about most often). Machine
|
|
specific changes have also been made, and are sometimes mentioned
|
|
in the pages for the specific <a href=plat.html>platforms</a> if you
|
|
are interested in further port-specific details. Many ports
|
|
have had architecture-specific enhancements relative to NetBSD,
|
|
but when they do not they certainly have plenty of platform-independent
|
|
changes, starting with those listed below..
|
|
|
|

Note: <strong>Problems for which patches exist are marked in red</strong>.
