Thanks for your help :) ... I still do find it a bit worrying that XFree86-cvs doesn't work - it's not as though CVS is that unstable - I've been using the DRI tree for my Radeon 8500 for months and it's been rock solid ... I tried applying a subset of the ports' -libraries patches (specifically the ones related to IPC) to the latest code in CVS without effect ... Thanks also for all your efforts to make this happen ... from the outside looking in, it seems like you've gone down a long road to get here :) :) :) Andrew To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
