Hi all,

This is a call for testing for newer Xorg along with newer drivers: intel and
ati.

The patch against the head ports: https://people.freebsd.org/~bapt/newxorg.diff

Note that you would need to rebuild all the xf86-* packages to work with that
newer xorg (hence the bump of the revision)

Do not expect newer gpu supported as this is not the kernel part.

If you experience any issue with intel or radeon driver please try to use the
new modesetting driver provided by xorg directly (note that fedora and debian
recommands to use that new driver instead of the ati/intel one)

To use that driver:

cat /usr/local/etc/xorg.conf.d/modesetting.conf
Section "Device"
     Identifier "Card0"
     Driver "modesetting"
EndSection

You need to first load the kms driver eiter via loader.conf or manually via
kldload

Best regards,
Bapt of behalf of the X11 team
Looks good with x11/nvidia driver!

Hi Matthieu - did you run into any issues building components from x11-drivers? specifically i'm running into this error when attempting to build x11-drivers/xf86-input-mouse x11-drivers/xf86-video-vesa (among others):

from vesa build log:
<snip>
checking if DPMSExtension is defined... yes
checking for XORG... no
configure: error: Package requirements (xorg-server >= 1.6 xproto fontsproto randrproto renderproto xextproto) were not met:

Package dri3proto was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `dri3proto.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
Package 'dri3proto', required by 'xorg-server', not found


Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.
</snip>

It's odd because xorg-server built fine as did dri3proto - so I'm not sure why its not being picked up by poudriere when i attempt to build these packages.

Cheers!
