So I choose 7.6. Actually, looking through the patch now... Two things jump out at me... We can't currently update libdrm in the ports collection without breaking nouveau. The second is, don't enable libdrm_radeon, even when we can. libdrm_radeon is only needed for TTM/KMS enabled radeon and may cause upgrade/build issues if it exists. robert. > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-x11@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-x11 > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-x11-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" -- Robert Noland <rnoland@FreeBSD.org> FreeBSD
