That would clear the > issue for 8.4 and 9.3 and make it possible to update drivers for them. There's a deep integration between the video drivers and the virtual memory manager. FreeBSD 8.x doesn't provide the necessary features to support any video driver. For FreeBSD 9.3, we will experiment with the i915 driver provided as a port. This would fill the gap required to have Mesa 10.x and xserver 1.15= =2E Depending on how this goes, we may provide all drivers as ports. But that will be a best effort only: if the kernel, especially the VM, misses required features, this will not be possible. --=20 Jean-S=C3=A9bastien P=C3=A9dron --JtaNR0EOEGN04loCQpOt4MGmLcxpMBHNG Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQJ8BAEBCgBmBQJUgMlcXxSAAAAAAC4AKGlzc3Vlci1mcHJAbm90YXRpb25zLm9w ZW5wZ3AuZmlmdGhob3JzZW1hbi5uZXQwMDAwMDAwMDAwMDAwMDAwMDAwMDAwMDAw MDAwMDAwMDAwMDAwMDAwAAoJEDnpl2Gl/ZTMhgYP+gMAmNCj56AJ/6xvxt+VNzyl 6cFED0p45SMuWFO4UYJqNtu/30O+lppRxgj753xJB2lPVMmSxBLByfpPlAnFHdX2 99EHKabFi2cFXD9DPzBqhbRhZ2lnut0c2Xi8IMB3Hd2uQiGGUNCihbw3lsSpu1Cz krP7hgtEsFduH/ggnC8E2fCgrzLnwmAWd5AWUoGLG+DugfywifNYvkvMqEEs9Yhi jAPI9dSyhG+78Ql2jtTdFm6EwQqA6XJH6vRsI7JC1FztPfNhTaJUgPIWZWC2mN/6 r8mxSEez/4zJEB0AQYkiD5wP2LUzs4Ms0teEphYndS3WpYecvOJVMJuANULLvZG8 LL/aJUOYkedV62jg3KUGuCKJ2ndA4yTpasRFLGZdTGPSVjydfdhTSCBDhi8+vRpd 6td2NGcu3kAEoGnx75F7/QyJMvr5RG/8WHiln0IARwVBA4Md3Bi7O85cnGUdsOb7 E3R1VN3RzVKLhYZMEy9npwdsYkRdUMZpjDDUstcQ1I4Ap1WuTVaZANBMRFQ4kvSP LFan0dtLacp04zm9nB8JBwbNdJkKVYHTgy1UrHVEAFDWFDbuklFUzX4wG2GMSTz3 4zZCVsneOEiYbnKnQjF8YkhBKFviGuRjCNFdS4bbuApzfJrSzna+pxLO8C5B8U9q 1aFD5lwe01hAv+5s9aor =qxeF -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --JtaNR0EOEGN04loCQpOt4MGmLcxpMBHNG--
