RE: how to reduce X building time?
Hi peter, After reading your reply, I also googled about the autoresume. It seems that it works like this:In the 1st time, I entered ./util/modular/build.sh --autoresum a.txt /usr, after it failed building,I did some modification, then reenter the ./util/modular/build.sh --autoresum a.txt /usr , it shouldresume from the previously failed component. I hope my understanding is right. Date: Fri, 8 Mar 2013 09:41:22 +1000 From: peter.hutte...@who-t.net To: wolfking2...@msn.com CC: xorg-devel@lists.x.org Subject: Re: how to reduce X building time?

I hope my understanding is right. That's correct. --autoresume writes the list of modules into the file provided (a.txt in your case) and will pick up from there again Cheers, Peter Date: Fri, 8 Mar 2013 09:41:22 +1000 From: peter.hutte...@who-t.net To: wolfking2...@msn.com CC: xorg-devel@lists.x.org Subject: Re: how to reduce X building time?
