Subject: Should I go with RELEASE or CURRENT?

NetBSD 1.4.1 runs fine on my box except for one problem: I've got an Ensoniq
AudioPCI card in my system, but it's a newer one (a 1371, I think, which is
AC97).  The older kernel doesn't support the card, but -current does.
However, I have no real desire to track -current; I don't need that kind of
pain in my life right now.  Is the eap0 driver ported to -release?  Please
say it is!

FWIW, I've got a -current kernel sitting on top of a generic 1.4.1 install,
but both top and ps are busted (along with a lot of other stuff, probably).
I'd feel a _lot_ better if I could run -release (1.4.2_ALPHA?), but I don't
want to give up my sound card.  I need my music!

TIA,
