How to update Xorg?

Is there a easy way to update OpenBSD's Xorg to latest cvs
release of 
it. This because of the added 'avivo' driver for my ATI
Mobility Radeon 
X1400 graphics card.

Like from release to stable? If so then I would you anoncvs
and
checkout Xs most current releases using cvs. Then use the
below link
to build X.

Here is how to build X: http://openbsd.
org/faq/faq5.html#Xbld

If this isn't what you need you might consider reading the
FAQ on -current.

I think he means how to build latest version from *X.org's*
CVS.

Timo: how about getting the source and following X.org's
documentation?

Yeah, that's how I'd imagine that should be done but how
will it work 
with the xenocara sources? I obviously will use the -current
branch.

The avivo driver needs the X.Org 1.3 server (which builds
without too
much trouble on OpenBSD once you've also updated its
dependencies) and
the libpciaccess library, which has not yet been ported to
OpenBSD.
I've recently commited a stub only version to xenocara, but
the actual
implementation is still lacking.
