So 4.3.0, as it is distributed, doesn't build on FreeBSD alpha (I run -current, but I think the same problems would exist for -stable).
The following patch makes the build work for me - it runs ok with my matrox millenium II card (though my virtual consoles are permanently blank after X runs the first time, until next reboot - anyone have ideas on that?) It does 3 things -- it makes a prototype for a function that doesn't have one (I couldn't find a header file with this, so I just include it here -- seems ugly), it fixes a problem with system include files (needed an extra one) and it fixes some broken #ifdef'd code (the #endif is several lines past where it should be, making the file have systax errors (the function never finds a final closing '}'). ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- # diff xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/os-support/bsd/alpha_video.c xc.working/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/os-support/bsd/alpha_video.c 35a36,38 > # ifdef __FreeBSD__ > # include <machine/sysarch.h> > # endif 38a42 > 53a58,59 > axpDevice bsdGetAXP(void); > 262a269 > #endif 266d272 < #endif ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Is there a better way to submit patches like this? I've just subscribed to the devel list in the last 10 minutes :).
