HEADS UP! 6.0-RELEASE coming

[Felipe openglx]

In fact I agree with Scott. There isn't much the OS can do.

As for that bug, I'm already in contact with the X.org developers and
trying to do a deeper debugging on what's going on. The driver
developer himself said he cannot test that on FreeBSD, thus not
assuring it full functionality. So it looks much more to be a X.org
problem than FreeBSD one.
