Welcome!
This fork of the FreeBSD Ports Collection merges the KDE and GNOME branches together with the upstream and adds more bleeding edge desktop-related patches.
- Make sure you have an up-to-date FreeBSD 12-CURRENT kernel and base
- Clone this repo into
/usr/ports(if it's already managed by git, add this repo as a remote, fetch and checkout/merge) - Build any ports you want :)
graphics/drm-next-kmod: hack workaround patch for ioctl auth issues kms-drm#33graphics/mesa-dev: alternative mesa port! Development version (little fork with my BSD patches), everything built together, using Meson! Always includes GL, GLES, Vulkan (RADV, ANV), Gallium Nine, OpenCL (Clover), VAAPI, VDPAU.- to install and keep pkg happy without rebuilding everything, just
pkg add -fover existingmesa-libs/dri

graphics/mesa-driandgraphics/mesa-libs:graphics/vulkan-sdk: Vulkan SDK (headers, ICD loader, validation layers) 222175graphics/libdrm: 2.4.91x11/xcb-protoandx11/libxcb: 1.13 226502
NOTE: ANV (Intel Vulkan) requires running the apps as root and might not work for complex applications.
RADV (Radeon Vulkan) with the amdgpu KMS/DRM driver works very well!
Tested on an AMD Polaris (RX 480) GPU.
