Greg, I fear I must address the kernel version issue you raise below: > > Here is my best effort at grabbing the screen output that > > emerged after typing 'make' in nouveau's pkgsrc directory: > > --snip-- > > > > ******* I fubared the screen grab! ******* > > > > oto >= 1.6.0 renderproto >= 0.11 xextproto >= 7.2.99.901 > > inputproto >= 2.3 kbpro to >= 1.0.3 fontsproto >= 2.1.3 pixman-1 > > >= 0.27.2 videoproto compositeproto > >>= > > 0.4 recordproto >= 1.13.99.1 scrnsaverproto >= 1.1 resourceproto > > >= 1.2.0 xinera maproto xkbfile pixman-1 >= 0.27.2 xfont2 >= > > 2.0.0 xau xdmcp) were not met: > > Package dependency requirement 'xproto >= 7.0.31' could not be > > satisfied.

If older, definitely upgrade. Please forgive a history review: Initially, I went to install ver. 8.0 on this nvidia-infested system while it was still running Windows 7, seeking a "dual boot" setup. No instance of ver 8 that I tried could run on it, complaining about "panic" over "no console device found." The Windows system now is long gone, but I did not find a kernel that would boot until this was tried: NetBSD 7.1.2 (GENERIC.201803151611Z) amd64 So that's what I have running now, which may go some way to explain why am using pkgsrc 2018Q. I am quite willing to try an upgrade to ver. 8 but my fear is that during the upgrade I will learn once again that ver. 8 does not boot on this box, but in the process, have undone the 7.1.2 that to at least runs, short of using X. Can I try the upgrade without harming what's running now? -- Bob B.
