I successfully made it past the git drm and xf86-video-nouveau, but failed on the ./autogen commands. Am I missing something here? Do I need a particular development package to use the ./autogen command? ...yeah, I'm a newbie..

Thanks....zplane

@sarumont, the autotools are in the ports tree and there is a meta-port for them.

I have nouveau working now, thanks to this post, but I can't get it to rotate. I run my monitors in portrait rather than landscape mode, so rotation is fairly critical to my work habits. ;)

I'll post back if I get it working...

Also a note: the kernel patch has been updated since this post was made. The latest version right now is:

Odd, but awesome. Time to move to amd64 and start playing with zsh. ;)

Don't forget the most important: Nouveau is under development, so expect kernel panics, don't use on production systems etc.

I personally have to reboot every once a while because Xorg cannot restart after I quit the X server, and can't run multiple X servers at once for logging-in with two accounts.
