Hi, ich have found an entry in /usr/local/ports/UPDATING, that the Variable XFREE_VERSION in /etc/make.conf was outdated and changed. So we shall use X_WINDOW_SYSTEM=xorg. I have searched an representing entry in /usr/src/etc/defaults/make.conf, and it is not shown. Now i have also shown that the XFree4.4-ports are marked as IGNORE. And i questioning me self why is the /etc/defaults/make.conf not changed. I have already read that the change should coming. Is this the right sign to change to Xorg's XFree? Has anyone an information when this come true, or when the change was maked in /usr/src/etc/defaults/make.conf? The reason to change to Xorg is clearly for me, may not why the defaults/make.conf isn't already changed. Thanks to all and best regards Michael

Could be many reasons, e.g.: You didn't do a mergemaster while upgrading the base system, or you upgrade from 4.x to 5.x, which no longer has /etc/defaults/make.conf ... But either case, looking at /usr/src/UPDATING and /usr/ports/UPDATING is a good idea.

Hi! I was making some tests with 5.3 RC1 and was working fine, so I go ahead and make a lot of customization and configuration, so the machine is ready to do its work. But now I want to cvsup the sources of 5.3 and build a new kernel and userland. In spite of the small differences between the 5.3 RC1 and 5.3, do I need to have access to the console of the machine or can do this remotely by ssh? Thanks, Mauricio.
