[OpenIndiana-discuss] Fwd: USB 3.0 (xHCI) Beta Testing and Review

Fri Nov 18 20:40:09 UTC 2016

Hi,

use the following command:

sudo pkg set-publisher -p http://pkg.openindiana.org/hipster-xhci <http://pkg.openindiana.org/hipster-xhci>

You will have on-nightly publisher. It will update your whole base system and create BE.

Cheers,
Adam
