I only spent a couple of minutes on this but I got it to build.
Step 1: In configure add the following two lines:
--- configure Wed Nov 12 16:13:54 2008
***************
*** 3739,3744 ****
--- 3739,3746 ----
;;
Linux)
;;
+ SunOS)
+ ;;
CYGWIN_NT-5.*)
system=Win32
;;
Then run ./configure.
Step 2: Modify the generated src/nvcontrol/Makefile with:
--- src/nvcontrol/Makefile Mon Nov 17 13:44:48 2008
***************
*** 2,8 ****
AR=ar
RANLIB=ranlib
system=SunOS
! CFLAGS= -I../backend
HAVE_X11=yes
OBJECTS=libnvcontrol.o nvcontrol.o
--- 2,8 ----
AR=ar
RANLIB=ranlib
system=SunOS
! CFLAGS= -D_REENTRANT -D_POSIX_PTHREAD_SEMANTICS -I/usr/X11/include
-I../backend
HAVE_X11=yes
OBJECTS=libnvcontrol.o nvcontrol.o
I don't know why the @X11_CFLAGS@ macro doesn't expand properly
because it is set to "-D_REENTRANT -D_POSIX_PTHREAD_SEMANTICS
-I/usr/X11/include"
after running configure.
Step 3: gmake
The nvclock binary is in the src directory. Take care when tweaking
your boards.
