This will install a more recent libdrm, dri and so on. It may helps. Also see the UPDATING note related to : 20100207: AFFECTS: users of Mesa3D libraries and x11-drivers/xf86-video-nouveau AUTHOR: nork@FreeBSD.org If you want to use Mesa3D 7.6.1 and libdrm 2.4.17 rather than 7.4.4 and 2.4.12, you must define WITHOUT_NOUVEAU global macro, at least, enabled on graphics/libGL*, graphics/libglut, graphics/dri, graphics/mesa-demos, and graphics/libdrm. And please give up using x11-drivers/xf86-video-nouveau. At this time, I cannot enable latest Mesa3D and libdrm, because they break xf86-video-nouveau. But old (current?) Mesa3D and libdrm do not break any drivers. AMD Radeon HD 2xxx/3xxx/4xxx users: If you use AMD Radeon HD [234]xxx series, please define WITHOUT_NOUVEAU global macro. You can then use OpenGL Hardware Accelerator feature on these series. Cheers, -- David Demelier
