I've been following the Xorg build instructions and have built Xorg in /usr. After the build, I restarted the system and found that
the /etc/ld.so.conf file looked like this:
/usr/local/lib
/opt/lib
i.e. the file had not been changed as a result of building Xorg. However, I had to add the line /usr/X11R6/lib to it and run
ldconfig in order to execute `Xorg -configure` in root's home directory. This seems to contradict the BLFS book (dated 2006-05-31):
If you've installed the X Window System in any prefix other than /usr, as the root user, add </usr/X11R6>/lib to the /etc/ld.so.conf
file and run ldconfig.
My first question is whether this contradition could indicate that smth is
wrong with my build of Xorg?
When I execute `cd ~ && Xorg -configure` I get smth on the terminal, then the screen goes and stays black. How can I find out what
is wrong?
