Well, if you think of it, it's not a very strange idea:

It's long been a wish of mine to have an ability to decide at boot time that a
system should boot in "console-only" mode. That is, that no graphics/X
applications like e.g. xdm/kdm/gdm are automatically started even when they are
configured to do so.
Here is my attempt at implementing that:

Hi,
I'm currently implementing support for more NSS databases in
net/nss-pamd-ldapd and I've started to wonder why there's only the group
and password support in lib/libc/net/nss_compat.c?
Is there a specific reason for it or is this a classic case of "patches
welcome"? I wasn't able to determine
I was sent this patch by a user that has been having trouble with his
hardware until attach_generic was disabled in loader.conf.
Is there any reason to have this on by default? Would anyone object to
me committing this patch?
