Mm. I thought it was relevant to here since it's a mandatory part of building Xorg at all. - If you're using the nVidia binary driver you can skip(cut it out of the xorg.modules) the mesa build because nVidia binary uses it's own Glx modules. Remember to put --disable-glx in

Re: How to build entirety of Xorg 7.4 from source
