Hi, I just pushed Xorg 7.3 to the xorg ports repository. Here's a few hints: * upgrade xorg-inputproto before you try to build the new xorg-server * install xorg-libpixman (new dependency for xorg-server) * after you upgraded everything, rebuild your video and input drivers against the new server. At the moment, xorg-server does not depend on dbus/hal, so if you don't have these two packages, you won't get input hotplug support in X. So far I think this is nicer than forcing everybody to install dbus/hal for X. Regards, Tilman -- A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text. Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing? A: Top-posting. Q: What is the most annoying thing on usenet and in e-mail?

If you use Nvidia binary driver, add -ignoreABI to $HOME/.xserverrc[1], and disable Composite extension in Xorg.conf, or wait for next Nvidia release which will support Xorg 7.3[2]. [1] Man page for startx suggests so, Tilman will correct me if I'm wrong :) So it should look something like this : #!/bin/sh exec /usr/X11R6/bin/X -ignoreABI [2]http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=97942 Pedja -- CRUX: It ain't for the average bear. --<nym> at #crux

#!/bin/sh exec /usr/X11R6/bin/X -ignoreABI
Or you can use the IgnoreABI option in /etc/X11/xorg.conf (see xorg.conf(5)). Regards, Tilman -- A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text. Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing? A: Top-posting. Q: What is the most annoying thing on usenet and in e-mail?
