Daniel, I would have to say that's because the VNC developer's haven't taken sufficient notice of this platform. Regardless, if you want the SRPM from the Sine Nomine site, go to http://www.sinenomine.net/downloads/. The binary RPM is available at ftp://ftp.iaehv.nl/pub/users/rvdheij/vnc/. Check out http://linuxvm.org/Info/l390link.html for links to other products.

The work of someone else would do just fine. I did not know that this was available. Why is there no listing on the VNC homepage? Daniel F.

Are you doing this as an educational exercise, or would you be satisfied with using the result of someone else's work? Sine Nomine has a source RPM (SRPM) for VNC, and Rob van der Heij has a binary RPM for it. Red Hat has the X packages available for download, etc. I can send you the patches I made to the X packages to get them to compile cleanly on a Slackware-based Linux/390 system if you still want to pursue that route. Mark Post -----Original Message----- From: Daniel Lavoie, Computer Sciences Corporation [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, January 24, 2002 1:27 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Make / Compiling / Porting Question I have a question about MAKE and Compiling and Porting. I downloaded some source for a product callled VNC which is an X windows application. There were two makes that I had to accomplish, one of them worked but the second on failed. It failed because of bad compiler options. The part that failed was Building the X Window system. Here are the messages that I received. Please let me know what else you will need. The BOOTSTRAPCFLAGS configuration parm seems to be for indentifying the machine type but this does not support OS390 yet. What would I have to do to get it to do OS390. make World Building Release 6.3 of the X Window System. I hope you checked the configuration parameters in ./config/cf to see if you need to pass BOOTSTRAPCFLAGS.
