[Xpert]joystick woes
i just tried compiling (well, i finally succeeded) XFree86-4.2, i ran make World, then make install after my setup files were in place... but i got this error in make install for the file lnx_jstk.c: In file included from ../../../../../../programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/common/xf86.h:17, from lnx_jstk.c:40: ../../../../../../programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/common/xf86str.h:250: parse error before `0x10' lnx_jstk.c: In function `linux_jstkModuleInit': lnx_jstk.c:179: `MAGIC_DONE' undeclared (first use in this function) make[6]: *** [lnx_jstk.o] Error 1 make[6]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/os-support/linux' this should not be being compiled in the make install file!!! it meant my whole system of libs and drivers was overwritten with new ones but the binary executable wasnt, so i didnt have any X for a while! i recompield without joystick support and it worked, this was fine in 4.1, is this a known problem? will it be fixed in next release? i run linux-2.4.18, gcc-2.95.3 thanks in advance!
