Sometimes, especially on older FreeBSD versions, the ports system will break because it expects a more recent world. I don't think that should have happened since 6.2-RELEASE, but I'm really not sure on that. From the errors you are seeing, it might indicate that a newer version of the package management tools are in need. At the very least, you can try to uninstall portupgrade and reinstall it from your new ports tree. I thought there was a port that would update these (ports-mgmt/pkg_install maybe?) in older installations. > Help me out a little here. Educate me. Please. Teach a man to fish.

If you have portupgrade installed, you can force an upgrade or reinstall like so: portupgrade -f packagename However, if there are two versions in the ports tree, with different port directories, you may need to do this: portupgrade -o type/newportdir packagename i.e. portupgrade -o databases/mysql51-client mysql-client-4.0 If you are worried about dependency tracking, pkgdb -L will restore lost dependencies, but *do* *not* *run* *this* *before* *updating* *xorg* to 7.3. It will severely mess things up.

Because your ports are from before the major X.org revision, that may be a valid course of action. It would certainly involve a lot less hair pulling. The instructions provided in UPDATING do work, I followed them several times shortly after they were written. Even though it's counterintuitive to do everything in one fell swoop instead of in discrete (verified) chunks, the process was very well tested at the time. I'm not sure if portsnap supports reverting back to a specific date, but it might be a good idea to somehow (csup, possibly) revert your ports tree to shortly after the X.org 7.2 changeover and try to update to that point. You can also use "portupgrade -P" when upgrading ports to have it try to fetch a package first, to save the compilation time. "portupgrade -aP" will upgrade all ports, preferring packages over compiling where possible.

OK, could the real problem possibly be that I did: portsnap fetch portsnap extract on a fairly stock 6.2-RELEASE systems that had already been in use for quite a long time *and* on which I *did not* first do this? # rm -fr /usr/ports ?? The Handbook instructions were really not at all clear about whether or not I was supposed to start by wiping out my pre-existing /usr/ports tree, and I get the distinct feeling that I perhaps should have done this because now it appears that I've got a ports tree that's got a bunch of _new_ X stuff in it along side a big bunch of old/stale X stuff. Example: # cd /usr/ports/x11-servers # ls -l total 38 -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 410 Mar 7 13:47 Makefile drwxr-xr-x 4 root wheel 512 Jun 15 2007 XFree86-4-FontServer drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 512 Jun 15 2007 XFree86-4-NestServer drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 512 Jun 15 2007 XFree86-4-PrintServer drwxr-xr-x 4 root wheel 512 Jun 15 2007 XFree86-4-Server drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 512 Jun 15 2007 XFree86-4-VirtualFramebufferServer drwxr-xr-x 4 root wheel 512 Apr 26 02:51 Xfstt drwxr-xr-x 4 root wheel 512 Apr 26 02:52 driglide drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Apr 25 23:30 mga_hal drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 512 Jun 15 2007 synaptics drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Apr 25 23:30 x2vnc drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 512 Apr 25 23:30 x2x drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 512 Apr 25 23:30 xorg-dmx drwxr-xr-x 4 root wheel 512 Jun 15 2007 xorg-fontserver drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Apr 25 23:30 xorg-nestserver drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Apr 25 23:30 xorg-printserver drwxr-xr-x 4 root wheel 512 Apr 26 03:15 xorg-server drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 512 Apr 25 23:30 xorg-server-snap drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Apr 25 23:30 xorg-vfbserver Do I correctly surmise that this is *not* tyhe way my ports tree should be looking?

Most of these questions are more related to the ports infrastructure than specifically x11. You will get better response to general ports questions on ports@freebsd.org or questions@freebsd.org than here. Second, you'll get much better response if you send out email for one issue at a time. And I'm afraid I think you're going to have to learn something along the way ;). And as a result, you'll be less afraid of the whole process. I'll respond to some of these questions, but a lot of them are general and can be addressed a number of different ways. It sounds like you have a bit of a learning curve, and we have no idea how much you know or don't know. It seems you picked a big complicated beast with lots of twisty interactions to start learning with. If you're patient and willing to experiment/learn, you can do it. If not, perhaps try a binary install from 6.3 release CDs. I don't mean to scare you. None of this is really rocket science. But there's lots of niggly details with the upgrade from xorg 6.9 (I assume) to the latest (changes to modular X.org build infrastructure and from /usr/X11R6 to /usr/local).

Note I have no idea whether following the 20070519 note verbatim is guaranteed to work anymore now that the ports tree has evolved.

Yes, it's possible to update incrementally, but I won't try to explain it in a sentence or two here. Try it, and ask more specific questions as you run into trouble. One possibility to consider is to install fresh ports into a chroot. Consider also using packages (pkg-add -r or portupgrade/portinstall -P or -PP) to save time and complications with build-time issues, although that means you have to take ports that were built the way the packaging machine built them. Another is to just pkg_delete your old xorg ports, then install new ones fresh. You'll have to live without X while you do, however (well, in theory, you could start the old X, then delete its packages but keep running the old X until you get the new one started - I've done that before and tried running the new X with startx -- :1 leaving the old one runing on :0). There's about 50 other ways to skin this cat I'm afraid. > Lastly, the 20070519 note in /usr/ports/UPGRADING also says: > > Make sure you have the x11/xorg meta-port installed.

"Make sure you have the x11/xorg meta-port installed". What's a meta-port? A port that really doesn't install anything of its own (at least not much, usually), but rather doing 'make install' in the port triggers it to go out and build/install a list of other ports recorded in its dependency lists (see the *DEPENDS variables in the Makefiles or run 'make pretty-print-build-depends-list pretty-print-run-depends-list' or other ways). You may then ask, "How do I tell if the xorg meta-port is installed?" If it was installed properly, this is one way... pkg_info -O x11/xorg Note that 'pkg_info -L -O x11/xorg' won't list contents because, being a meta-port, it doesn't actually install any files of its own. > P.S.

If you have a ports tree that matches the port tree from the 6.3 release (note: not the same as the latest ports tree as of today, the so-called HEAD) then there should be a line in ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk that has 'X_WINDOW_SYSTEM ?= xorg' which defines that variable. It seems something is not right with your ports tree. Why? I don't know, but fixing that may alleviate lots of your other problems.

If you built new kernels from the -RELEASE sources, it wouldn't have that much of an impact, but if you update your sources and then built only a new kernel, then your world and kernel would be out of sync and cause no end of craziness. You might have better success if you update to a more recent 6.x version (6.3-RELEASE or perhaps -STABLE).

I believe this is the only time in the recent history of the ports system that such a major change has taken place. Unfortunately, it has broken quite a few systems for various reasons. Some people have pkg_deleted all of their ports and reinstalled from scratch out of frustration with the process, or like you are considering, starting fresh with a new version after the xorg migration. >>> Help me out a little here.

If the port installation is broken in some way, or files are incorrect, then forcing a reinstall of the port can fix certain problems. Typically -f is used for reinstalling the current version rather than an upgrade, but it has many uses. >> If you are worried about dependency tracking, pkgdb -L will restore lost >> dependencies, but *do* *not* *run* *this* *before* *updating* *xorg* to 7.3. >> It will severely mess things up. > > I seem to have already woirked my into into a "severly messed up" state on > my own volition, so there's probably not much more I could break that I > haven't already rendered useless anyway. > (1/2 :-) Even so, I don't recommend wreaking some major dependency havoc on your installed ports unless you want to see how bad you can make it before you wipe and reload ;-) On the system where I did pkgdb -L before updating my xorg ports, it ended up with a lot of inconsistent or circular dependencies (I forget why and what at the moment, but I had figured it out at the time...) and I ended up having to pkg_delete everything xorg-related. Actually, on that system, I ended up rebuilding ports with WITHOUT_X11=yes and then I removed X since it was rarely used anyhow. > Yea.

Overall it has been better than 6, or at least as good, so there was no reason to stay with 6 on systems that could handle the time to upgrade. (I still have plenty of 6.x machines that are in production, and it will be quite some time before they are all moved to 7...) >> I'm not sure if portsnap supports reverting back to a specific date, but it >> might be a good idea to somehow (csup, possibly) revert your ports tree to >> shortly after the X.org 7.2 changeover and try to update to that point. > > Why would I want to do that? > > That sounds like a rather odd suggestion. I mainly suggested that because it would put your system into a state in which the xorg upgrade instructions directly applied. If there was a recent advancement in the ports system that is incompatible with your base system, it would also eliminate that as a potential source of problems. As others have suggested, including yourself, you might have an inconsistent ports tree or package database. It wouldn't hurt anything to rm /usr/ports/ and fetch a fresh copy, and you could also rm /var/db/pkg/pkgdb.db and rebuild it with pkgdb -u (or pkgdb -fu).

But the symptoms (e.g., pkg_version failing due to undefined X_WINDOW_SYSTEM - that might happen if you have a newer bsd.port.mk but older ports Makefiles) point to problems with your ports tree. What's the $FreeBSD$ in your Mk/bsd.port.mk ? xorg-server/Makefile ?

I have no idea. Why do you surmise that? We can't tell by looking at that directory listing. What is the PORTVERSION/PORTREVISION in xorg-server/Makefile? Note that if you want to update to xorg 7.3, you'll not want the FreeBSD 6.2 version of the ports tree since xorg was still at 6.9 for FreeBSD 6.2 > Would it make sense for me to in effect, start over, i.e. via the following: > > # rm -fr /usr/ports > # portsnap fetch > # portsnap extract If you have nothing that you've done in /usr/ports that you want to preserve such as local patches (if you don't know what I'm talking about then you haven't), then removing your ports tree will be fine. As to the portsnap part, I don't know - I've never used it - but that looks reasonable after glancing at the man page. You could try doing 'mv /usr/ports /usr/ports.mv' then comparing the trees (diff -ur) after doing the fresh portsnap. For me, I use the 'old school' method straight from CVS (with a local copy of the repository from cvsup in CVS mode) or infrequently cvsup in checkout mode... see cvsup man page or the cvsup faq for more. If you had a local copy of the ports CVS repository, you could checkout the ports tree and do a diff to verify everything is properly up to date. Try ports@ or questions@ if someone doesn't answer here. These questions are not really specific to x11.

Often, this is due to a better alternative having become available and/or the cessation of development on the existing port. In some cases, ports are marked for removal because they fail to build and install correctly from their sources, or otherwise fail in operation. The ports, and the reason and date that they have been scheduled for removal, are listed below.

I couldn't find any X11 drivers (except vesa) that works with this chipset and the previous fglrx-on-freebsd effort does not have support for the later Xorg versions such as the one found in FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE. Luckily I managed to get the latest driver for Linux to work - no 3D acceleration but 2D and Xvideo works fine. I can now work at 1920x1200 and use mplayer in fullscreen mode so I'm happy. If anyone is interested let me know and I'll post instructions on how to accomplish this. It is relatively simple - I had to create a simple wrapper that allows the FreeBSD Xorg to load the Linux driver with the help of libmap.conf. regards, Jacques From owner-freebsd-x11@FreeBSD.ORG Thu May 1 16:19:25 2008 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-x11@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 1B3671065674 for ; Thu, 1 May 2008 16:19:25 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from jacques.fourie@gmail.com) Received: from yw-out-2324.google.com (yw-out-2324.google.com [74.125.46.30]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id C5E5E8FC15 for ; Thu, 1 May 2008 16:19:24 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from jacques.fourie@gmail.com) Received: by yw-out-2324.google.com with SMTP id 5so525442ywh.13 for ; Thu, 01 May 2008 09:19:22 -0700 (PDT) DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=domainkey-signature:received:received:message-id:date:from:to:subject:cc:in-reply-to:mime-version:content-type:content-transfer-encoding:content-disposition:references; bh=pnH9zt331j6+Hd1zTm9ljNp1XNvwINyHX3xnaP0XBUE=; b=ORE/H71BktF1xJ5nvEK8zsYM1VqBb82jE8AvlJtyoOBjinIyfTnyPClu1BugQj7QVnHMLIP4gL60Lw2hxUBS+Dzx7jIL/3Aux1CZ0Z/Suro61NmYvc3ITMKCEj/GSNadINokdPFV6ZY/kwAEp2O/7JawWkGt8hp/38cTMg1m8pg= DomainKey-Signature: a=rsa-sha1; c=nofws; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=message-id:date:from:to:subject:cc:in-reply-to:mime-version:content-type:content-transfer-encoding:content-disposition:references; b=SOp165QVcgiVTOLbzKrGQEyRX/gaYq51LFyloxCZTdBiDYeuxbXtxvHkwblz1xmdCa97CA2OyO8gaBztnLwhVRia+/6wWN0cRhlqzvYH9vHvaiwoJFaDwd8C3gh3SWpattcGP2B5Z/nCDT+WehnTbTrr0/zB8NW7EgzGhB818kY= Received: by 10.142.216.9 with SMTP id o9mr862238wfg.93.1209658761978; Thu, 01 May 2008 09:19:21 -0700 (PDT) Received: by 10.142.204.7 with HTTP; Thu, 1 May 2008 09:19:21 -0700 (PDT) Message-ID: Date: Thu, 1 May 2008 18:19:21 +0200 From: "Jacques Fourie" To: "Adam K Kirchhoff" In-Reply-To: <20080501120805.0fede9c2.adamk@voicenet.com> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline References: <20080501120805.0fede9c2.adamk@voicenet.com> Cc: freebsd-x11@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Working fglrx driver on FreeBSD-7 X-BeenThere: freebsd-x11@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: X11 on FreeBSD -- maintaining and support List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Thu, 01 May 2008 16:19:25 -0000 I tried the radeon driver but somehow couldn't get it to work.

What is up with that? >=20 > Rudy >=20 You probably changed AGP aperture size. I expect there is an algorithm in the nvidia driver which calculates the 'correct' amount of VideoRam to steal from shared memory when attaching to a shared memory graphics card like the 6150. It is probably max(256MB, 2 * agp_aperture_size). I could be dead wrong.. The intel driver manages shared memory in a similar way.

With a radeon card (ati driver), an USB mouse and a PS/2 keyboard. It worked fine with FreeBSD 6.3-STABLE. I upgraded to FreeBSD 7.0-STABLE ... and I can't use xorg: I launch xdm manually for testing with -nodaemon arg, I can login, move a windows, go to the syscons (Ctrl-Alt-F1...), type something in a xterm window until I press a mouse button. After mouse buttons and keyboard are not responding, but cursor is moving. And if I try to shutdown from a distant terminal (with ssh) it never finish. I need to press the reset button on the computer! Disks are not synced (fdisk required). I tried with twm and windowmaker as window managers (and without wm). I don't found related message in the logs (Xorg.0.log, console.log, message.log). Excepted about drm: [drm] writeback test failed but when I have [drm] writeback test succeeded in 1 usec there is the problem too. I have rebuild all ports installed and check the libc version required. ( twice at least for every port and kernel and world, mergemaster for config file...) What I forget to do? -- regisr From owner-freebsd-x11@FreeBSD.ORG Sat May 3 12:04:10 2008 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-x11@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 9B1671065675 for ; Sat, 3 May 2008 12:04:10 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from donotreply@TringMe.com) Received: from tringme.com (tringme.com [67.228.46.178]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7CF098FC13 for ; Sat, 3 May 2008 12:04:10 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from donotreply@TringMe.com) Received: by tringme.com (Postfix, from userid 1006) id 00BE9B685FA; Sat, 3 May 2008 06:43:58 -0500 (CDT) To: freebsd-x11@freebsd.org From: TringMe Message-Id: <20080503114359.00BE9B685FA@tringme.com> Date: Sat, 3 May 2008 06:43:58 -0500 (CDT) Subject: Make Free Calls Worldwide - Invitation From Mohd.
