I did that tonight (under -current). The only gotcha is that you need GNU make for the makefiles to work. Other than that, it worked like a charm (I haven't been so lucky with the X server, probably not because of the Nvidia patches but because I have never recompiled XFree from scratch, thanksfully Chris did that part :-) I've put the binary here: http://www.enst.fr/~beyssac/riva-glx-freebsd.tar.gz IMPORTANT: it's an ELF archive, tested only on 4.0-current. It might work on 3.x but I didn't try it. It certainly won't work under 2.2.x. The difference of speed between hardware and software rendition under "xlock" is amazing on "sproingies" and "morph3d" :-) -- Pierre Beyssac pb@fasterix.frmug.org pb@fasterix.freenix.org {Free,Net,Open}BSD, Linux : il y a moins bien, mais c'est plus cher Free domains: http://www.eu.org/ or mail dns-manager@EU.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message
