Hi! Before updating xf86-video-ati to 7.5.0, we would like some people to try it out. The reason is that 7.4.0 was crashing for several users, so we want to be sure it's fixed in 7.5.0.
Here's patch: https://people.freebsd.org/~dumbbell/graphics/ports-xf86-video-ati-7.5.0.patch To apply it: cd /usr/ports patch -p1 < /path/to/ports-xf86-video-ati-7.5.0.patch Then update x11-drivers/xf86-video-ati with your method of choice. What we're especially looking for is report of successful or failed startup of the X server. With 7.4.0, the server would crash during startup. But with 7.5.0, none of us could reproduce the problem. When you're finished, you may restore your vanilla ports tree: cd /usr/ports patch -p1 -R < /path/to/ports-xf86-video-ati-7.5.0.patch find x11-drivers/xf86-video-ati -name "*.orig" -delete Thank you for your help! -- Jean-Sébastien Pédron
