I had to install python27 and then install py27-libxml2 as a result. 3) The base compiler complained bitterly about weird code in the intel drivers under MesaLib. I had to remove -pedantic in all the config files and reconfigure the port before I could compile MesaLib. 4) A mach64 header file under MesaLib wanted to include byteswap.h, which isn't present in FreeBSD. I had to edit the file and use sys/endian.h instead. Generally, a normal user would have thrown up his hands and given up after step 0 above. Definitely not ready for prime-time. So far everything seems to be working. -- Gary Jennejohn
