It was kindly pointed out to me that I didn't follow the instructions to the
letter.
Well, now I have done a 'portupgrade -af', and xfce4-session still crashes
and core dumps when I do 'startxfce4'. From /var/log/messages:
Mar 12 23:01:30 kg-v7 kernel: pid 18687 (xfce4-session), uid 0: exited on
signal 6 (core dumped)

It doesn't matter if I try as my normal user or 'root'.
'startx' works fine (as it did before, too).

Something else that I recently got reminded of. XFCE4 uses a lot of
the compositing effects in the window manager. Have you tried
disabling them in xorg.conf and restart the X session?

Thanks,

signal 6 is an abort, can you get a backtrace? Does the server exit, or
just xfce?

I don't know xfce4, but if it is using compositing and gl, have you
rebuilt libGL and dri?

Reporting it works great for me. My system is :

FreeBSD gusiport 8.0-STABLE FreeBSD 8.0-STABLE #0: Thu
Mar 4 19:11:14 CET 2010
gus(a)gusiport:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/CUSTOM amd64

with an nvidia card.

Instead of portmaster -af, what I did was :

portmaster -a && portmaster -f nvidia-driver

Everything seems to run fine.

Will try to jump to current. Will I need to recompile xorg again ?

Thanks
