As stated, 8-Stable of Aug. 19. I should have also mentioned that it's an
amd64 system.

I have about 900 ports installed including a full gnome system and a number
of multimedia ports inc. ffmpeg, handbrake, mplayer, lame, avidemux, and
several that don't come to mind.

If you need it, I can send the full list when I get back to my system.

Thanks!
