Hello,

    I just got my box up and running Current 12-27.  ATA works great for both drives now.  However, I compiled XFree86 from the port and I chose the options for RPC, Wraphelp.c, PAM and threads.  When I start x (using startkde), I get many many password prompts.  I can only assume that the PAM module used for athentication by XFree86 is broken.  Is the owner aware of this?

    I recompiled without PAM support and everything works as expected.
