Well, [1] says: "Port the X server (ports/x11/XFree86-4-Server). Not really
required for tier 1 status, but one cannot truly do without if one wants to
use ia64 as a desktop machine."

That's interesting. And what about the desktop environments like GNOME or
KDE? Can you run them locally or only remote access?

Thanks. I've read that the FreeBSD graphics stack was undergoing major
changes [2] (BTW, x86/x64 only?), but don't know the current status. What
about KMS or Gallium3D for example? On the Linux side, 3D hardware
acceleration is really unstable on my zx6000 without KMS and r300g. And
even with that in, I'm still getting random X freezes.

Originally I said no, but you can try disabling SMP altogether by setting
kern.smp.disabled=1' from the loader prompt.

Well, [1] says: "Port the X server (ports/x11/XFree86-4-Server). Not really
required for tier 1 status, but one cannot truly do without if one wants to
use ia64 as a desktop machine."
ok, I never run X server on ia64,
only clients.

That's interesting. And what about the desktop environments like GNOME or
KDE? Can you run them locally or only remote access?
no, don't use any of that.
Also, probably neither will build on ia64.
Even building kdelibs and kdebase segfaults
arbitrarily, and there's no help or interest
from devs:

Thanks. I've read that the FreeBSD graphics stack was undergoing major
changes [2] (BTW, x86/x64 only?), but don't know the current status. What
about KMS or Gallium3D for example? On the Linux side, 3D hardware
acceleration is really unstable on my zx6000 without KMS and r300g. And
even with that in, I'm still getting random X freezes.

well, since I don't run X server on ia64,
I don't really need any of that.
I guess if you really want to run X server
on it, then you are on your own...
