It is sufficient to launch a local X server and a single client, or to query a remote xdm server. By default, the port installs in a /var/tmp directory so that the resulting files can be easily copied to their final destination (ramdisk, flashdisk, etc ...) The only video driver compiled in by default is for a Via integrated chipset, but this can easily be changed. A tarball of this port can be downloaded from here: http://www.thinbsd.org/download/Xorg-thinbsd-2004-05-31.tar.gz Feedback would be welcome ! -- Francois Tigeot
