Can I cvsup it? Yeah there is. I tried compiling the source (via ports of course) but it seemed to want a whole bunch of tcl/tk junk (I have tcl, tk and tclX installed), and would not compile. So I just used the binary distribution provided on their ftp site, ftp.xfree86.org. Just read the README files and follow the directions and it should install flawlessly.
