[R10] Build X.org for Ivy Bridge Intel graphics

I want to try XBMC on FreeBSD. The vesa driver gives me 2 fps, which seems inadequate. So I decided to try and build xorg using ports, after having everything including xbmc already installed through pkg.

The problem is, I can't get a lot of things to compile. It will fail to find X11/Intrinsic.h for instance, even though I have compiled libXt. Before I start pointing fingers I would like to make sure my ports tree isn't corrupted by improper usage. How do I start over, so that I will have Intel HD accelerated graphics?

Can I just empty out /usr/ports and then:

Code:
portsnap fetch
portsnap extract
vim /etc/make.conf
WITH_NEW_XORG=true
WITH_KMS=true
:wq
cd /usr/ports/x11/xorg
make clean install

Is that expected to yield me a working xorg install? Then move over to x11-drivers/xf86-video-intel and build that?
 
Thanks. Unfortunately, MESA doens't build on my system.

Code:

edit: trying this http://freebsd.1045724.n5.nabble.com/Co ... 59900.html
Can you check that, after you removed graphics/dri, the file named
/usr/local/include/GL/glext.h doesn't exist anymore? The GLDEBUGPROCARB
callback is defined by Mesa itself in this file, but it wasn't defined
in older Mesa (7.6.1).

If the file is still there after removal of graphics/dri, try to remove
it yourself and rebuild the port. You may have to remove other files.

edit 2: no cigar.

I still wonder if installing xorg kde and xbmc through pkg and now backing up taking the ports route is causing the trouble. Maybe I should reinstall and try ports from the start?
 
Alright. I reinstalled from scratch, didn't bother with pkgand went straight for portmaster. X.org compiled fine, and xbmc is compiling atm. I'll report back on the performance.
