We were generally short on time this quarter. We made less + progress than expected on all fronts.

+ +

The alternate pkg(8) repository, built with WITH_NEW_XORG, is + now available. This alleviates the need for users to rebuild + their ports with WITH_NEW_XORG. See the announcement, linked + above for further information.

Thanks to a contribution from Jan Kokemüller, Radeon 32bit + ioctls are now working on 64bit hosts. This was tested + successfully with Wine and StarCraft II on &os; 9.x and 11. + This required modifications to emulators/i386-wine-devel so + that it works with WITH_NEW_XORG, and the creation of a new + port, libtxc_dxtn, to support texture compression required by + StarCraft II. We haven't yet had the time to polish + everything, so this still requires manual steps.

+ +

The DRM generic code update is ready, but it breaks the + current i915 driver. Therefore, the i915 driver must be + updated before anything is committed.

+ +

Compared to last status report, OpenCL test programs are + running fine now, thanks to upgrades and fixes to libc++ and + Clang. Relevant ports are still not ready to hit the ports + tree unfortunately.
