Well, I think that most of them refer to the compilation process and install, as you can see by their names but some are still patching code: May 8 13:07 extrapatch-include-iprt-string.h May 8 13:07 extrapatch-src-VBox-Devices-PC-vbox.dsl May 8 13:07 patch-configure May 8 13:07 patch-src-VBox-Devices-Makefile.kmk May 8 13:07 patch-src-VBox-HostDrivers-Makefile.kmk May 8 13:07 patch-src-VBox-Installer-Makefile.kmk May 8 13:07 patch-src-VBox-Installer-freebsd-virtualbox.desktop May 8 13:07 patch-src-VBox-Main-src-server-HostImpl.cpp May 8 13:07 patch-src-VBox-VMM-VMMR3-CPUM.cpp May 8 13:07 patch-src-recompiler-target-i386-cpu.h Anyway, I have to try them on 4.1 code. And for that, I have to pack the svn tree into a tar.gz file and alter the port Makefile for the new version and checksums. -- Mario Lobo http://www.mallavoodoo.com.br FreeBSD since 2.2.8 [not Pro-Audio....
