Hello:

	I just updated this box to 4.5-STABLE by running cvsup and
makeworld.  However, when I ran mergemaster, I must have done something
wrong, and I kept getting error messages about "daemon class not found,"
and "default class not found."

I wasn't too happy about this, so I did an "rm -rf /etc" and restored the
backup copy I made.  Everything seems to work fine now, with the original
/etc directory from 4.4-RELEASE.

Do I really have to run mergemaster?  Are there any files that MUST be
updated in the /etc directory?  I do not want to screw up this box. :-)

Also, how do I get rid of those annoying "hints" that show up when I log
in?  Where is the hints program launching from?

Thank you,

Marco Radzinschi
