Hmm... after I rebuild X again it seems to work now (still some issues though). I'm curious, do you know which snapshot you were using? So just for the record: - X from snapshots (July 19th, and July 22nd) did not work. With the July 19th snapshot I did a fresh install. With the July 22nd snapshot I took the upgrade path. - Building X from source (empty /usr/xobj, etc) still did not work. - Built xserver with debug and following instructions in xenocara/README left me with a strange core with useless backtrace. - Rebuilding X (empty /usr/xobj) with DEBUG=-g starts X but there are some issues with some ports that use X (e.g., firefox 3.6.7 crashes similar useless core file as X earlier). ATM I'm starting to build the entire system from source (kernel, base, X over again) and then try and (re)build the ports ... --patrick
