Got another one this morning. This time the only thing running was the make index && make readmes, and XFree86. Actually, they both may have finished by then, I started them up then had to go to sleep, so I'm not entirely sure how far along it got in the process. I do know it was past the index

You are looking for the 'sysutils/portupgrade' port. It installs a tool called pkg_deinstall. So to achieve what you described, you would run 'pkg_deinstall -R A' and it would deinstall 'A' and any of its "orphaned" dependencies, ie. B, C, D but not E. Seeya...Q On Thu, 2003-10-16 at 21:41, Mi

This might not be related to your problem but on my Radeon 7000 VE I had to disable DRI in the Modules section of the XF86Config to allow it to work above 15bit Although my error messages where slightly different and my X would lockup rather than error out. Also noted you are using th ati driver.
