New package:
http://ftp.fortunaty.net/DragonFly/inofficial/packages/All/X.org-6.8.2.tgz

This updates X.org to 6.8.2 and should solve the libXft problems.
libXft is included and thus should give conflicts.

There is one problem with the package that i know of, and that is
related to the mouse pointer acting wierd when it hits the accelleration
point.  Afait this is an X.org problem (i also get it with their CVS HEAD).
Would be nice if someone can confirm that problem.

I think i already know which commit is responsible and try to fix it in
the next package X.org-6.2.1_1.tgz.

Andy
