XFree86 loads various modules from /usr/X11R6/lib/modules. That said, I could find nothing about ldts being used anywhere in the source (grepping for LDT, sldt, and set_ldt). Perhaps the nvidia driver is being used? That's the only thing I could think of. -- Eric Anholt [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://people.freebsd.org/~anholt/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
