I am also using a Matrox card (G400) and just upgraded to XFree86-4 using the ports collection. It was fairly painless, once I realised that I needed to upgrade to imake-4 (the ports collection didn't figure this out automatically; I don't know why, and the build failure was obscure). I made it like this: # cd /usr/ports/x11/XFree86-4 # make FTP_PASSIVE_MODE=YES WITH_MATROX_GXX_DRIVER=YES # make FTP_PASSIVE_MODE=YES WITH_MATROX_GXX_DRIVER=YES install Making XFree86-4 actually work properly then took a little while. The config utilities didn't help much. The mouse didn't work until I switched the config from the Intellimouse protocol (always worked with 3.3.6, and my mouse _is_ an actual Microsoft Intellimouse) to PS/2. Enlightenment didn't work (it needed the Shape extension, so I had to Load "extmod"). I don't need xfstt any more, so I had to turn that off. And some of the font names changed, rather mysteriously, (from -webfonts-* to -truetype-*). Now it's working it seems fine. I even got DRI working (first time) by following the instructions at <http://gladstone.uoregon.edu/~eanholt/dri/index.html>. Whizzy OpenGL. I ended up with the following XF86Config file. Matrox Millenium G400/32MB with Sony CPD-G500P (19" Pro), running 1600x1200 @ 85Hz.
