Having done a portmaster -a rendered my system virtually unusable, Xorg kept crashing when opening claws-mail, firefox and thunderbird, opera kept chrashing in a random fashion, too.
Quod googelet "x11 crash site:freebsd.org" and narrowing down the results for to the last week, I found two references, i.e., 1) http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?p=178234 and 2) http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?p=178014. Having implemented 2) via portdowngrade to fontconfig-2.8.0_2,1 seems to have solved the crashing issues for opera and claws, firefox and thunderbird are waiting to be compiled. Has anyone observed similar issues, can anyone back my suspicion about fontconfig or show me how to prove it and wouldn't a note on UPDATING be in order? Thanks for your comments, cheers and have a nice weekend, -- Christopher TZ GMT +2 _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
