Hey Everyone,
I have tried to compile X source a few times with no success.. I keep getting
compile errors in parts of the code unrelated to the DRI/DRM Patch. I think
there is something wrong with the way I am compiling.
I have tried checking out both xf-4_3_99_8 and xf-4_3_99_9 tags from the cvs
repository and get build errors in different places in both. Can someone tell
me what I am doing wrong? or perhaps recommend some exact steps on what i need
to do once I've got the X source with the patch applied. (I have AGPGart going
already)
Currently I am checking out the xc module and applying the relavent patch ( I
have tried both Hui's original against xf 4.3.99.8 and the updated patch
against 4.3.99.9)..
The patch applies successfully and I begin a make World of xc (I assume you
need to compile all of X??) with the following command:
make World -WORLDOPTS= 2>&1 | tee build.log
The build starts successfully and begins compiling and what not but later fails
with a compile error (different depending on the tag) (unfortunately I
accidently overwrote my build.log so I'll have to do the compile again and
capture the exact error to post).
I have setup a host.def file in xc/config/cf setting ProjectRoot,
NothingOutsideProjectRoot and EtcX11Directory so that the custom build will not
conflict with my existing X Server install. ( I will post both my host.def file
and exact compile error tonight after I run the build again )
If it helps:
I am currently running RedHat 9 with a 2.4.20-8 custom kernel including the
ACPI patch, a patch for my Wireless Card (Netgear WG511) and the AGPGart patch
I posted earlier. I have XFree 4.3.0-2 RedHat packages installed.
I am running gcc version 3.2.2 20030222 ( RedHat Linux 3.2.2-5)
"Configured with: ../configure --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man --
infodir=/usr/share/info --enable-shared --enable-threads=posix --disable-
checking --with-system-zlib -enable-__cxa_atexit --host=i386-redhat-linux
Thread model: posix"
My Machine is a Compaq N1020V, P4 2.4GHz, 256M RAM and plenty of disk space to
play with.
Do I need to be compiling the whole of X for this? If so, how is everyone else
able to build this, yet I am not. Am I perhaps missing some C flags?
If anyone can shed some light on this I'd really appreciate it,
cheers
Lachlan
