Yes, XFree86. Read the entire thread. Can't we just murder this thread? This issue is very old, has been discussed, many solutions found. Don't know what it's doing back on -security right now. If you'd really like in-depth information on this, wouldn't it be nicer to do a websearch, considering that this has been discussed so many times way before? (No need to forward this to netbsd-security, either, but I guess I'm too late) Just my thoughts... -ysyi To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-security" in the body of the message
