The X-Server has been patched to the latest 1.7.X series, drivers and fonts have been updated to the latest versions, but unfortunately we are not able to update libGL, drm and xorg-server to a higher version because FreeBSD doesn't support GEM/KSE (yet), but it looks good for now, as kib@ is working on that, so we hope the future will be better for us. This update includes some components from Xorg 7.6 with a lot of improvements, and it seems that the performance is much better than the old version. We are calling the update xorg 7.5.1. We hope you will enjoy the new stuff and give us a lot of feedback. We will start an exp-run tonight and depending on how much feedback we get, we plan to commit this update by the first weekend of March. A note for ATI users, the driver was updated to 6.14.0, so you may need to add some stuff to your xorg.conf in the "Section "Device"" Option "int10" "on" Option "BudType" "PCIE" Option "RendrAccel" "on" Option "AccelMethod" "exa" Option "DynamicPM" "on" Option "DRI" "on" So to get the xorg stuff you will need to: run svn co https://trillian.chruetertee.ch/svn/ports/branches/xorg-dev A small merge script to merge the svn checkout into the real portstree can be found here: http://people.freebsd.org/~miwi/xorg/xorgmerge The script is a modified version of the kdemerge script. Please set the KDEDIR variable to the path of your X.org ports. After merging, run one of the following command, depending on which tool you use to manage your installed packages. portupgrade -a \* portmaster -a Please report any problems and issues to x11 (at) FreeBSD.org. I would like to thank: Beat Gaetzi Dima Panov Koop Mast Eitan Adler Without these people the Xorg update would still not be ready now. PS: Please don't send us mails with 'xorg update dosen't' work. If you send us a report, please include the latest Xorg.conf Xorg.log, uname -a output and pkg_info output. Thanks. Happy Updating! - -- +-----------------oOO--(_)--OOo-------------------------+ With best Regards, Martin Wilke (miwi_(at)_FreeBSD.org) Mess with the Best, Die like the Rest -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.17 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAk1fxLMACgkQdLJIhLHm/OmntgCeKiPk0tAKC7bO/Xb44hHcd7fT 9kcAnAjQOv4OGu2QC1Du/uC3KYnT7bhH =cJRt -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
