FYI, the X.Org 7.4 ports now work and package fine again on sparc64, this requires at least the following versions or later and r188018 (r189080 for 7-STABLE) though: dri-7.4_1,2 libGL-7.4_1 libGLU-7.4_1 libpciaccess-0.10.5,6 xf86-video-sunffb-1.2.0_1 xorg-server-1.5.3_8,1 This also includes sun4u machines based on USIII or greater and equipped with cards driven by creator(4) or machfb(4), the latter requires r191076 (r191230 for 7-STABLE). I didn't bother to try with hal enabled though as it still seems to be quite problematic even on amd64 and i386 according to the other lists. I've also once again fixed firefox and firefox3 and probably some other gecko-based ports like seamonkey and thunderbird to work on sparc64. Marius
