Fix the build of xorg related ports when the base system is compiled with clang as system compiler and cpp is clang cpp (as opposed to GNU cpp). This is done by removing the configure test for cpp completely. Using clang cpp will make some manual pages as well as some scripts get slightly wierd whitespace formatting. However, it does not affect the function of the scripts or the instructions in PR: ports/166373 Submitted by: Jakub Lach <jakub_lach@mailplus.pl> (PR) Patch by: me (with ideas from PR and mailing list) Tested by: Jakub Lach <jakub_lach@mailplus.pl>, me Approved by: kwm (mentor) Obtained from: xorg staging area7761aefad2
- 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.
