+Updating Information for MidnightBSD users.
-+
+20120229:
-+
+        cpucontrol(8) and cpuctl(4) added from FreeBSD 7-stable.
-+
-+
+20120209:
-+
+        mDNSResponder 333.10 imported
-+
-+
+20111227:
-+
+        import raid5 module for GEOM, graid5(8)
-+
-+
+        This is experimental and known to use a lot of kernel
-+
+        memory.
-+
-+
+20111223:
-+
+        telnetd: fix a root exploit from a fixed buffer that was not checked
-+
-+
+        pam: don't allow escape from policy path.  Exploitable in KDE, etc.
-+
-+
+        Fix pam_ssh module:
-+
-+
+        If the pam_ssh module is enabled, attackers may be able to gain access
-+
+        to user accounts which have unencrypted SSH private keys.
-+
-+
+        This has to due with the way that openssl works.  It ignores unencrpted data.
-+
-+
+        Fix security issue with chroot and ftpd.
-+
-+
+        nsdispatch(3) doesn't know it's working in a chroot and some
-+
+        operations can cause files to get reloaded causing a security
-+
+        hole in things like ftpd.
-+
-+
+20111217:
-+
+        libdialog/dialog upgraded to an lgpl version. As it's not
-+
+        backwardly compatable, include the old libdialog as libodialog
-+
-+
+20111212:
-+
+        mksh r40d imported
-+
-+
+20111210:
-+
+        re(4) and rl(4) updated to support new chips.
-+
-+
+        GEOM synced with FreeBSD 7-stable.
-+
-+
+        MidnightBSD GPT partition types created in sys/gpt.h and
-+
+        setup in boot loader and GEOM.
-+
-+
+        amdsbwd(4) (amd watchdog for south bridge) updated to support
-+
+xx series chipset.
-+
-+
+20111207:
-+
+        import bsd grep from FreeBSD/OpenBSD.
-+
-+
+        MK_BSD_GREP controls which grep is installed
-+
+        as grep with the other as bsdgrep or gnugrep.
-+
-+
+20111122:
-+
+        mksh vR40c imported.
-+
-+
+20111117:
-+
+        BIND 9.6 ESV R5 P1
-+
-+
+20111107:
-+
+        tzdata 2011n
-+
-+
+20111026:
-+
+        mDNSResponder v320
-+
-+
+        BIND 9.6 ESV R5
-+
-+
+20111022:
-+
+        cflow 0.0.6 imported
-+
-+
+20111020:
-+
+        less v436 imported
-+
-+
+        amdsbwd(4) AMD southbridge watchdog
-+
-+
+20111019:
-+
+        awk 20110810 imported
-+
-+
+        et(4) Agere Gigabit Ethernet/Fast Ethernet driver added, but
-+
+        not included in GENERIC kernel.  The kernel module needs
-+
+        testing before we can include it in GENERIC.
-+
-+
+        intr_bind code ported to allow an IRQ to be bound to one
-+
+        specific CPU core.
-+
-+
+20111017:
-+
+        Time Zone Data v. 2011l (Released 10 October 2011)
-+
-+
+        Updated list of countries (iso3166) to work with new timezone data.
-+
-+
+20111015:
-+
+        Introduce CPU Affinity in MidnightBSD. cpuset(1) can be used
-+
+        to control which core or group of cores can be used for a given
-+
+        process. Several new system calls were added to support this
-+
+        functionality in the running kernel and for 32bit binary
-+
+        compatibility on amd64.
-+
-+
+        The scheduler default has been changed to ULE in i386 and
-+
+        amd64.  Changes were made to both schedulers (4BSD AND ULE)
-+
+        for this feature.
-+
-+
+        This work is based on Jeff Roberson's FreeBSD 7.1 patches.
-+
-+
+20111004:
-+
+        Fix a problem with unix socket handling caused by the recent
-+
+        patch to unix socket path handling. This allows network
-+
+        apps to work under the linuxolator again.
-+
-+
+20111001:
-+
+        Import libfetch & fetch(1) from FreeBSD 9. Passive FTP is
-+
+        now default and an environment variable must be set to use
-+
+        active.
-+
-+
+20110930:
-+
+        Introduce quirks handling for several umass devices including
-+
+        USB cameras.  Add workaround for Cyberpower UPS devices.
-+
-+
+        Bring in further bug fixes from FreeBSD and NetBSD for alc(4).
-+
+        Stale ip/tcp header pointers are no longer used, lockups fixed
-+
+        when network cable is unplugged on bootup, enable TX checksum
-+
+        offloading.
-+
-+
+        Add a new man page for gcache(8), a useful geom class when
-+
+        working with large raid3 sets.
-+
-+
+        Restore previous workaround for Cypress pata storage controller.
-+
-+
+20110929:
-+
+        Sync ath(4) with FreeBSD 7.3.
-+
-+
+        The following modules are no longer available, and should be
-+
+        removed from loader.conf:
-+
+        ath_hal ath_rate_amrr ath_rate_onoe ath_rate_sample
-+
-+
+        alc(4) would hibernate when a cable was unplugged and often
-+
+        required bring the interface down and up to "wake up" so that
-+
+        a connection could be established.  Disable hibernation.
-+
-+
+20110928:
-+
+        Fix security issues with gzip and compress related to .Z
-+
+        files that are corrupted.
-+
-+
+        Fix path validation with unix domain sockets.
-+
-+
+20110917:
-+
+        Remove dependance on mports perl for generating releases as
-+
+        it's in the base system.
-+
-+
+20110914:
-+
+        Import xz 5.0.3 with liblzma 5.0.3
-+
-+
+20110813:
-+
+        synced the sparc64 GENERIC kernel configuration with amd64.
-+
-+
+20110806:
-+
+        sqlite 3.7.7.1 imported
-+
-+
+        msearch(1), libmsearch and msearch.import added.  msearch(1) provides
-+
+        a full text search command line tool.  libmsearch can also be used
-+
+        to build a graphical based search in the future. You can enable
-+
+        index building for msearch in periodic.conf or manually run the
-+
+        /usr/libexec/msearch.index tool.  Full text indexes take considerable
-+
+        space in /var.  I'm using approximately 500MB currently.
-+
-+
+        Fix a long standing bug with the periodic script to check package
-+
+        versions.  This will be obsolete with mport though.
-+
-+
+20110710:
-+
+        kdb_enter_why added to MidnightBSD to allow the kernel debugger to
-+
+        know why it's in use and thus script can be run.
-+
-+
+        Yet another problem with the perl manifest was fixed
-+
-+
+20110709:
-+
+        cpufreq(1) is a new utility to monitor CPU frequency which may change
-+
+        with use of powerd(8) and cpufreq(4).
-+
-+
+20110612:
-+
+        Update mksh to R40
-+
-+
+        Catch up ObsoleteFiles.inc to remove Perl 5.10.x.  Good to run when
-+
+        updating current (cd /usr/src && make check-old)
-+
-+
+20110528:
-+
+        Fix CVE-2011-1910 in BIND 9.6.x.  This affects caching resolvers.
-+
-+
+20110526:
-+
+        newfs:
-+
+        Raised the default blocksize for UFS/FFS filesystems from
-+
+K to 32K and the default fragment size from 2K to 4K.
-+
-+
+        This should slightly imporve performance on "advanced format"
-+
+        hard drives such as the WD EARS drives. Drives of this type
-+
+        have emulation modes that slow down with lower sizes.  Of course
-+
+        the drive must still be aligned properly when using fdisk.
-+
+20110521:
+        mport tool now has a deleteall command.  This can be used to remove
+        all packages from a system.
