So I went to sourceforges cvs page and use that syntax except I terminated 
the 2 example with nitros9 "update" & that worked I think.  But I don't 
recall having to use anonimous the last time.  And, scanning back over the 
shell history there are several errors:

cvs update: cannot open directory /cvsroot/nitros9/nitros9/3rdparty/libs: 
No such file or directory
cvs update: skipping directory 3rdparty/libs

cvs update: cannot open directory 
/cvsroot/nitros9/nitros9/3rdparty/packages/drivewire: No such file or 
directory
cvs update: skipping directory 3rdparty/packages/drivewire

cvs update: cannot open directory /cvsroot/nitros9/nitros9/6309l3: No such 
file or directory
cvs update: skipping directory 6309l3

I thought I had my tree cleaned up of stale dirs that I discovered I had 
about 3 months back?

And, no sign of the superdriver stuff is in the backtrace.

Was this the wrong cvs update command?

cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous at nitros9.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/nitros9 
update

Merry Christmas & Cheers, Gene
