Great, thanks to you all!
I just updated ports, merged 7.5 and started the big portupgrade - will
take some days on my old machine ...

Perhaps you should send your announcement to some more mailing-lists? -
I just remember the endless discussions following the last xorg upgrade.
The more people you find for testing the less nagging there will be.

Greetings

I am testing the repo (revision 120) since the last CFT. I'm using
FreeBSD 8-STABLE amd64 with KDE, proprietary nvidia drivers (beta) and
KDE 4.4 with OpenGL compositing enabled. After a "portupgrade -a" for
the new xorg ports (not -af), I only did a "portupgrade -f
nvidia-driver" and all is working without problems.

Thanks !

Just finished compiling on my desktop with no issues.

FreeBSD 8.0-STABLE amd64, KDE 4.4.1, nvidia binary driver.

The update was smooth so i am compiling 7.5 on my laptop too, i will
test it with both intel and radeon.

Thank you very much for your work!

Regards.

Works here too.
For some reason, Xfce doesn't work after the upgrade, xfce4-session core
dumps when I do 'startxfce4'. (Yes, I have recompiled allt the xfce ports).
FreeBSD 8.0-stable, xfce-4.6.1_1, vesa driver.

FreeBSD kg-v7.kg4.no 8.0-STABLE FreeBSD 8.0-STABLE #0: Sun Mar 7 20:55:51
CET 2010 root(a)kg-v7.kg4.no:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC amd64

I'm currently using the vesa driver, it seems that it is the only thing that
supports this "integrated graphics controller" of the Interl Core i3 cpu
(i3-540) that I have.

Did you recompile everything like the instructions state, or at
the very least libxcb dependent pieces (cairo, et all)? Memory serves
me correctly cairo and libxcb links into xfce4, and it turns into a
nasty mess if the ABI mismatches.
Thanks,
