If so, it puts GL libs in place which break this build. Fortunately, it keeps the old libraries nearby, so rather than a full rebuild of the XFree86-4-libraries, you can pkg_deinstall nvidia-driver, do the build, then reinstall nvidia-driver. Much quicker. Incidentally pkgtools.conf can be taught to do this for you. -- jan grant, ILRT, University of Bristol. http://www.ilrt.bris.ac.uk/ Tel +44(0)117 9287088 Fax +44 (0)117 9287112 http://ioctl.org/jan/ "No generalised law is without exception."
