Hi all Please let me describe first the background, I'm upgrading the Xorg 7.4 to Xorg 7.5 on Tomahawk Desktop (http://www.tomahawkcomputers.com/). Tomahawk Desktop is a new operating system based on FreeBSD 7.2 sources but does not use the FreeBSD standard distribution. We, in general, use the FreeBSD kernel and userland utilities separately and individually compile and install.
We don't have a port system and how we install packages are just by compiling original packages as described in: http://www.tomahawkcomputers.com/pkgmgt-howto.html In Tomahawk Desktop 2.0 Beta1 we got an issue, that when try to run the KDE, the X server crashes. To resolve this issue, as a first step, I'm upgrading the existing Xorg 7.4 to Xorg 7.5. In your website (http://www.x.org/releases/X11R7.5/), it says "/X11R7.5 is an Open Source version of the X Window System that supports Linux, BSD, Solaris, Cygwin and MacOS X on Intel and other platforms./". FreeBSD uses the xorg-server-1.6.1 and which is patched as seen in: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/x11-servers/xorg-server/files/ Appreciate if the X.org foundation could confirm that Xorg 7.5 could be used on FreeBSD 7.2 without being patched.
