Robert, I'd like to make a summary about "How to update xorg".
Is it right in general?

0. prepare to accept any troubles
1. update /usr/src and /usr/ports tree to the latest -STABLE or -CURRENT
2. build and install the latest kernel, and reboot
3. update xorg and related all packages using portupdate or portmaster
4. update /etc/X11/xorg.conf
5. enjoy the new xorg world

And then, I have some questions.

2. Do we need to update the userland, too?
3. If using portupgrade, is "portupgrade -af" better than
   "portupgrade -rf xorg"?

Thanks.
