Hi,
Hi,
I have a 10-stable system, and I am trying to rely
as much on pkg as possible to install stuff so I don't
need to build my own packages from ports.
After the latest upgrade to KDE 4.12 in ports,
KDE does not build out of the box. It turns out
that x11/kde-workspace needs WITH_NEW_XORG.
In ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk, there is this:
# Enable new xorg for FreeBSD versions after Radeon KMS was imported unless
# WITHOUT_NEW_XORG is set.
.if ${OSVERSION} = 110
. if !defined(WITHOUT_NEW_XORG)
WITH_NEW_XORG?= yes
. else
.undef WITH_NEW_XORG
. endif
.endif
Would it be possible to bump that check to a lower value of OSVERSION?
radeonkms was imported into HEAD r254885, and this changeset
exists in stable/10.
We are working now on a patch to bump this to include 10.0-stable. The
reason why this wasn't bumped earlier was because it was deemed
unacceptable that there wasn't a console driver that could work with the
KMS driver. The infamous black screen when you started X, which stayed
black even if you quit X. Now that vt(9) was merged to 10.0-stable this
problem has been resolved, even if vt(9) isn't enabled by default yet.
I set WIT_NEW_XORG in my /etc/make.conf and rebuilt all my ports
and KDE works fine. My laptpo has a a Radeon:
(--) PCI:*(0:1:0:0) 1002:6760:103c:161e Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.
[AMD/ATI] Seymour [Radeon HD 6400M/7400M Series] rev 0, Mem @
0xc000/268435456, 0xd440/131072, I/O @ 0x4000/256, BIOS @
0x/65536
On another note, it looks like with KDE 4.12 in ports, will there will
be no working
KDE desktop on FreeBSD-9?
Well I got some good news here, the radeonKMS driver was merged into
9.2-stable. And it being investigated/worked on to get vt(9) also merged
into the 9.2-stable branch. So we can switch to the new Xorg version
there too.
