Oops, I'll have to clarify that. No, you don't need to keep an XFree86-4 tree around at all. Just get the X-DRI tree from sourceforge, and install it over your XFree86-4 install. I have both XFree and X-DRI CVS trees (downloading the 90MB or whatever per X release just isn't going to happen through my 28.8): /usr/local/src/xfree is X CVS (cvs.xfree86.org, updated/installed rarely, as most changes end up in X-DRI soon enough anyway) /usr/lcoal/src/xdri is X-DRI CVS (cvs.sourceforge.net bsd-2-0-0-branch, compiled/installed frequently). I'm working on making it so we can have an official port of the DRI -- you'll install the XFree86-4.x port (which would install X, the dri modules, libGL, libGLU, etc.), then go to graphics/drm-kmod and install that, and you'll be done installing. It's not quite finished yet, and I am waiting to get to a faster line (2 weeks) before downloading the X release to test against.
