I just want to report one more good thing. I recompiled mozilla from scratch right out of the ports directory, and it runs fine now with Xft support and all. -- Gunnar Flygt, SR
I find it working very fine on my troublesome 5.0-CURRENT box. I've had big problems for some weeks getting 4.2 to work. I gave up the other day, but 4.3.0 worked straight "out of the box", if you can say so after a portupgrade XFree86 What didn't work was the installation of XFree86-FontServer but I can live without that, I hope. -- Gunnar Flygt, SR

The good thing is still good, but only on one of the 3 systems I test 4.3.0 on. The system working OK is a newly installed laptop which runs 5.0-CURRENT. The second system is an ordinary desktop 1.4GHz Dell, which runs 4.7-STABLE. Here mozilla behaves as earlier described. The info "No Windows found" is shown and then I get the prompt back again. No mozilla started. I'm trying a recompile of Xft using `portupgrade -r -f Xft` to see if this makes any difference. But at least XFree86 4.3.0 runs fine. -- Gunnar Flygt, SR

It was much better to re-cvsup the ports and apply the patch again. So that thing is working and the system is updating the XFree86-FontServer now. Sorry for the noise.

Got some complaints that the patch was there already, and was it OK. So I answered yes to all of it and the patch applied on the missing parts. And since the system was updated yesterday with the -7 patch, it was a few parts left. XFree86-FontServer was one of them, and when I run `portupgrade XFree86-FontServer` it does nothing, no upgrade. Any suggestions? All the other parts are working though, except for xdpyinfo which gives a lot of output but gives this strange output: # xdpyinfo name of display: :0.0 version number: 11.0 vendor string: The XFree86 Project, Inc vendor release number: 0 XFree86 version: 0.0.0 -- cut -- This is a 4.7-STABLE machine or should I say 4.8-RC which it is.
