I know this topic was covered 6 months ago, but I'm wondering if anything changed between now and then as far as the status of the NX bit goes? If it hasn't changed, then why? If every other OS has support for the NX bit, then why doesn't freebsd? http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-amd64/2006-April/007931.html -- Jim Capozzoli
