+  x11-servers/xorg-server has been updated to 1.20.7.
+
+  With this update, xorg-server has switched from using the devd backend to
+  the udev backend for device configuration on FreeBSD 12 and 13.  If you have
+  issues with input devices, please see the install message for details.
+
+  The HAL backend option has been completely removed, as it was deprecated.
