X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.75 [en] (X11; U; OpenBSD 2.7 i386) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: qa@freebsd.org Subject: FreeBSD 4.5 RC2 problem with XF86 4.1.0_12 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-qa@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Ladies and gentlemen, I (finally!) installed 4.5RC2 yesterday. I installed XF86 3.3.6 during sysinstall, only to find it did not have drivers for the VGA chipset in my test machine, a "PC Wave" brand "book pc". The video card is identfied in dmesg as "Trident model 8400" by the PCI bus probe. So I erased the /usr/X11R6 directory and installed XF86 4.1.0 from the packages on the CD-ROM. Attempting to run xf86cfg failed, /usr/X11R6/bin/X was unable to run due to unresolved symbols. I deleted the package and built the port from source, installed, and obtained exactly the same results. I cvsupped ports early yesterday and built the 4.2.0 port overnight; I am installing it now. If you need the exact unresolved symbols error messages I can re-install the 4.1.0 package later today, but it would certainly bear testing. It would be a shame to ship 4.5 with a broken 4.1.0 package, no 4.2.0 package, and only creaky old 3.3.6 that actually works. -- Boats love me Sails fear me Wes Peters System Architect http://www.dobox.com/ DoBox Inc.
