WARNING: If you fail to rebuild input and video packages for xorg-server on major ABI changes, eg. 1.16.0 -> 1.17.0. You will end up with no mouse or keyboard and possibly no direct 3D acceleration for video. If you do happen to forget and have sys-rq enabled in your kernel you can do a safe reboot with holding down Alt + SysRq, and typing the following sequence in order, pausing for several seconds between each key: reisub PRE-INSTALL xorg-server 1.16 new dependency libepoxy xorg-server 1.17 new dependency xorg-xcb-util-keysyms xorg-server 1.17 removed dependency xorg-xf86-video-modesetting The current version of xorg-server needs these packages sorted out before a prt-get sysup from crux 3.1 release is done. prt-get remove xorg-xf86-video-modesetting prt-get depinst libepoxy xorg-xcb-util-keysyms POST-INSTALL After upgrading xorg-server, from major versions rebuild video and input packages: NOTE: This only applies on ABI changes between major versions eg, 1.16.0 -> 1.17.0. prt-get update -fr $(prt-get listinst | egrep '^xorg-xf86-(input|video)') \ $(prt-get listinst | egrep '^mesa3d') If you use nvidia you also need to do this: gl-select use xorg prt-get update -fr $(prt-get listinst | grep 'nvidia') gl-select use nvidia To avoid rebooting you can do this: NOTE: you have to exit xorg to do this. rmmod nvidia depmod -a
