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
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
