I _did_ apply the patch at PR ports/36121 (which didn't go smoothly and required some hand editing ['BuildXF86DRM=NO \' did not get added, it seems the context has changed]) You shouldn't need any patches to X at this point for DRI compiling. You probably don't want to use the modules that come with X because the drm-kmod ones should work better. I would normally say "check out CVS and see if that changes anything", but I don't think anything has changed for the r128 in CVS. > > make.conf is: > > CPUTYPE=k7 > #CPUTYPE=i586 # ignore - for remote buildworlds > CFLAGS= -O -pipe > #CXXFLAGS= -fmemoize-lookups -fsave-memoized > COPTFLAGS= -O -pipe > XFREE86_VERSION= 4 > WITHOUT_GNOME=yes > Doh! (Every time I see questions regarding XFree the reply is 'let's see your XFree86.0.log output') Yeah, usually an XFree86.0.log is good for X questions, but as -questions is a very general list it's probably a good idea to put it somewhere else if possible. > > Should I reinstall XFree with an unadulterated Makefile? Should I let it compile it's own DRM modules? If so would reinstalling XFree86-4-Server and XFree86-4-libraries be sufficient? I don't know what you should do at this point. If you were to compile, XFree86-4-Server is all you need to do because it is the only one that does DRI and 2d driver stuff. The only possible change I would make would be dropping the CPUTYPE because I'm wary of extra optimizations in gcc (and considering that you seem to be the only one so far seeing this). > > -- > Cogeco ergo sum To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
