I think in the past the module was automatically loaded, have a look at pkg-install, where it is done. I'm not sure whether pkg-install is still used in the new pkg(8) area. Anyway, linux_base-f10 is currently being replaced by linux_base-c6, a much more modern linux system (basically, cent os 6.5). See http://www.freshports.org/emulators/linux_base-c6/ for details and also check /usr/ports/UPDATING on that topic. -- pi@opsec.eu +49 171 3101372 6 years to go !
