I've recently upgraded my AMD64 FreeBSD station from 5.4 to 6.0 using the handbook method.

Everything seems to work OK but I have the message after repeating every second on tty1 after I log on X :

kvm_open : kinfo_proc size mismatch (expected 912 got 1088).

After some search on Internet I gave an eye to /usr/src/sys/sys/user.h for kinfo_proc_size values, but the right value (1088) is already set for amd64.

So I don't know how to solve this problem, and I'm quite afraid to touch some souce code on my system.

This is almost certainly a mismatch between the kernel version and a monitoring tool that is trying to inspect kernel state (specifically, retrieve process lists). If your buildworld/installworld doesn't match your kernel version, then you need to rebuild and make sure everything is in sync. If it does, it's probably a third-party package that is out of sync and needs updating.
