I just applied security patch -p4 (last week -p3) to a freebsd 8.2 system
(generic kernel)
# freebsd-update fetch
# freebsd-update install
# ls -la /usr/src/sys/conf/newvers.sh
has date of today and contains
REVISION="8.2"
BRANCH="RELEASE-p4"
reboot
# uname -r
8.2-RELEASE-p3
still shows -p3 not -p4
When starting /usr/local/bin/kdm (e.g. from /etc/ttys), this starts kdm-bin
(KDM window manager)
but also a local X server.
On a server machine this often is not needed.
How to configure xdm to not start a local X server?
So far I came up only with
# vi /usr/local/share/config/kdm/kdmrc
ServerCmd="

Hello.
A week ago the portaudit alert came for mozilla products. I updated
www/firefox36 and mail/thunderbird3 ports but still no www/libxul in the
ports.
I suppose I need the 1.9.2.23 version:

Are you sure it is a vSphere problem? I'm not sure:
I have used it for 2 years without problem, only with the last reboot (for
security update -p3 of FreeBSD 8.2)
I got into problems. I update packages every week, maybe something changed

It is not so clear .. My problem is:
My FreeBSD is a VMware Virtual machine, for 2 years.
When connecting to that machine via vSphere client, I get a KDM
login window and via Ctrl-Alt-F1 can switch to a console prompt
Well, that *was* possible ..
