Method: Install the appropriate build-deps for these git checkouts from freedesktop.org. This should be solved mostly by apt-get build-dep xserver-xorg.
mesa: mesa_7_0_branch (don't actually install this, just have it handy for building xserver) xorg-macros: master libXfont: libXfont-1.2-branch xserver: server-1.4-branch xf86-input-evdev: 0405f7b xf86-input-keyboard: ae630ae xf86-input-mouse: abc65be Then, using the notes below, and perhaps the git building instructions for xserver on freedesktop.org, build these into a X server executable in a convenient prefix. For use on 2.6.29, you will need to patch your fglrx kernel module source as follows: <contained in attachment> In addition, you will need to link/copy from the kernel source root: drivers/acpi/acpica/ into your linux-headers-VERSION/include/acpi/acpica , due to dirty things the fglrx driver does. Instructions, patch, and notes adapted from various internet forums, firstly http://www.phoronix.com/forums/showthread.php?t=16173 NOTES: for building xserver: ./configure --prefix=/opt/gfx-test --with-xkb-path=/usr/share/X11/xkb --enable-glx --with-mesa-source=/home/user/mesa for libXfont to work, you will need to use this patch: diff --git a/src/FreeType/fttools.c b/src/FreeType/fttools.c index 5393558..36a59b9 100644 --- a/src/FreeType/fttools.c +++ b/src/FreeType/fttools.c @@ -44,11 +44,9 @@ #include "ft.h" /* backward compatibility hack */ -#if (FREETYPE_VERSION < 2001008) # ifndef ft_isdigit # define ft_isdigit isdigit # endif -#endif #ifndef LSBFirst #define LSBFirst 0 A smarter path to accomplish this for the interested may be to hack the symbol/api bits fglrx and it's dri want back into xserver-1.[56], but I don't know how successful such an endeavor could be, especially with newer upcoming Mesa/Gallium/DRI versions probably obsoleting this. The above would of course need much cleaning to be packagable, and reminds me of the bad old days of needing 16 different X servers, but would be workable for the stubborn.
