The team has been pretty busy, and in addition, they didn't want to commit 4.8 before FreeBSD 8.3-RELEASE came out. I think there are plans to release 4.8.2 in the near future, but I'm sure someone much more knowledgeable then I am will be along shortly. Cheers, DMK On April 29, 2012 12:02:51

I'm not Raphael, but I can field this one. Newer Intel chipsets have integrated GPUs. These GPUs use Kernel Mode Switching, which FreeBSD does not support (yet; work is being done on it.) A lot of newer laptops use the Intel integrated GPUs, apparently KDE has made support of them a priority.
