Numlockx can't find X
Hi. While installing numlockx (a little tool to have numlock on just after boot under xdl or kdm), I uncouter problems in the configure process : checking for X... configure: error: Can't find X includes. Please check your installation and add the correct paths! There's a mention in the BLFS book (I use Xorg 7.2) that installing X in /usr is no problem for allmost all packages. I created the /usr/X11R6 symlink, with no effect. My KDE is in /opt/kde, maybe it has something to do with it. I inspected the configure script, but it's kind of chinese for me (and french people are ESPECIALLY bad in chinese !). Can someone help me on this one ? \bye -- Nicolas FRANCOIS http://nicolas.francois.free.fr A TRUE Klingon programmer does NOT comment his code -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page

Please check your installation and add the correct paths! That is just a horrible use of autoconf. The offender is the K_PATH_X macro in acinclude.m4 which is totally unnecessary because there's already a default autoconf macro for finding X. Try adding x_includes=/usr/include x_libraries=/usr/lib to the end of your ./configure command. -- Dan -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page

I love LFS :-) Thanks Dan. \bye -- Nicolas FRANCOIS http://nicolas.francois.free.fr A TRUE Klingon programmer does NOT comment his code -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
