Howdy,

This is an FYI to let people know about a really nice feature for those
that have ports installed which include kernel modules. You can place a
list in /etc/src.conf like this:

PORTS_MODULES=  emulators/virtualbox-ose-kmod sysutils/fusefs-kmod
x11/nvidia-driver

which will cause those modules to be built and installed with all the
proper matching stuff at the same time as buildkernel and installkernel.

This feature has existed for a while, but has had "issues." Thanks to a
team effort it's a lot more robust now, and ready for prime time (in
HEAD, and the -STABLE branches for now, soon to be in 9.1-RELEASE).

Enjoy,

Doug
