OK, the final version of the X.Org conversion patch has hit the tree. No ports appear to be broken by the upgrade at this time. X.Org has been made the default X distribution on -current. Other versions of FreeBSD retain the same default X distribution (XFree86) but can upgrade by setting X_WINDOW_SYSTEM=xorg in /etc/make.conf. To upgrade, you must remove your XFree86 ports and install the xorg ports. It couldn't be done with portupgrade, unfortunately, because we are keeping the XFree86 ports around. To upgrade: pkg_delete -f /var/db/pkg/imake-4* /var/db/pkg/XFree86-* cd /usr/ports/x11/xorg && make install pkgdb -F If you want to keep the old XFree86 on -current, simply set X_WINDOW_SYSTEM=xfree86-4 in make.conf I am currently working on updating -current's sysinstall for X.Org. Until then it will be broken. -- Eric Anholt eta@lclark.edu http://people.freebsd.org/~anholt/ anholt@FreeBSD.org
