This problem has hit both drm-fbsd12.0-kmod and virtualbox-ose-kmod in the past and has caused real pain that would have avoided by simply building a trusted port for these kmod ports whenever a RELEASE is made. Of course, people running head or STABLE should be aware that they should build these ports from source and not install a package. -- Kevin Oberman, Part time kid herder and retired Network Engineer E-mail: rkoberman@gmail.com PGP Fingerprint: D03FB98AFA78E3B78C1694B318AB39EF1B055683
