Can't start X

Get message about WARNING: Kernel has no file descriptor comparison support

I'm running 12.2-STABLE, I git everyday both /usr/ports and /usr/src.

I've tried deleting all of my ports and re-installing them.

The error message comes from mesa.

https://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/commit/?id=57e4d0aa1c16d3be36ccee4065c55901cb6fad43

You may want to try removing your font-config caches or any caches that use
mesa in some fashion and trying again.

How do I remove font-config caches?

I can't find a relevant manual page – sorry – but I'm aware of the
fontconfig directories in some users' home directories.

% du -hs ~/.cache/fontconfig
2.8M    /home/grahamperrin/.cache/fontconfig
% sudo du -hs /root/.cache/fontconfig
grahamperrin's password:
du: /root/.cache/fontconfig: No such file or directory
% pkg info -x fontconfig mesa
fontconfig-2.13.93,1
linux-c7-fontconfig-2.13.0
mesa-dri-20.2.3_1
mesa-libs-20.2.3
% man fontconfig
No manual entry for fontconfig

mentions fc-cache(1), I wonder why there's no such manual page.

Thanks, that did clear and rebuild the caches.  I didn't see any related
to mesa or dri.

My system still can't start X though.  I appreciate the help.
