2014-07-17 Thread Petr Salinger
Thanks. I've checked that xserver-xorg-video-nv (non-free, meant for kfreebsd systems) still builds OK with xorg-video-abi-18, xserver-xorg-core (>= 2:1.15.99.903). I don't have hardware available to test it with unfortunately. I can confirm that xserver-xorg-video-nv works under kfreebsd-amd6
