Thanks John,
That did the trick! Here's what I did:
I had to make deinstall and reinstall for graphics/libdrm to get the
newest version.
Next I tried making the Xorg metaport again.
Make clean install
It installed this time. -- Took @ 30 minutes.
Next, I tried starting x from the console:
Startx
This time I got the error, no core device
failed to initialize core devices
No core pointer registered
cannot open input device
I had to reconfigure Xorg.
Xorg -configure
X -config /root/xorg.conf.new
Now it worked.
Next, I copied the new config file to /etc:
cp xorg.conf.new /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Tested with:
Startx
It worked! Xorg 7.2 upgrade complete.
Thanks again!
