- Please welcome Xorg 7.5.2
The Xorg Team is pleased to announce the next round of Xorg updates. The team created a new flag called WITH_NEW_XORG that users can include in /etc/make.conf. This was created for the intel KMS work being done althouthough It probably works for other chips. Unfortunately, the intel KMS driver will only work on FreeBSD 9(RELENG|STABLE) or 10/HEAD users. Older version of FreeBSD will not be supported. Intel users will need to patch their source manually with Konstantin?s KMS kernel patch to get the newer chips to work. Please carefully read UPDATING entry. Changes: - libdrm 2.4.31 (including KMS support) - mesa 7.11.2 - xorg-server 1.10.6 - a lot of new Graphic Drivers. I would like to thank: Koop Mast Eitan Adler Niclas Zeising and all helpers and testers from x11@.

+ The default mesa has been updated to 7.6.1 and the default xorg-server to 1.7.7.
+ A switch is available for people that want to use mesa 7.11.x and xorg-server
+ 1.10.6. This requires an nvidia card or Intel+KMS support. If you have an intel
