embedded (GPL)Xfree86
Dear all, I m working on porting the X11 onto an embedded environment. The regular XFree86 is obviously MUCH MORE than needed. I need some trimmed version of XFree86 for embedded linux(mizi), that too under GPL(i can't buy any comercial s/w). Cud you plz suggest me some suggestion or link where i can find the same. I have extensively google'd without much luck :-( Thanx in advance, jassi ___ Meet your old school or college friends from 1 Million + database...

Re: using externally built libs (Xcursor, Xrender, Xft)

I basically allows XFree86 to build using an externally built libs. http://bugs.xfree86.org/show_bug.cgi?id=741 It wouldn't let me classify into multiple libraries...so I just associated it with other. I don't see how building against an external Xrender/etc works, since those libraries depend on libX11; to avoid a dependency loop, we copy the libraries into the X11 tarball and do various munging. Fixing that isn't really possible without splitting up of main tarball. (Better external fontconfig support would be appreciated, however) Regards, Owen ___ Devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/devel

If you just take the core server, the drivers you need, and the fonts you need, you get a very compact solution. If all you need is the SERVER, you can throw out all the utilities and most of the libraries.

I have extensively google'd without much luck :-( I'm surprised by that statement, because there are a number of excellent choices for this, and there are several websites that have surveys of the available choices. Besides the TinyX/kdrive option that was already mentioned, you should also look at nanoX, which is part of Microwindows. -- - Tim Roberts, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Providenza Boekelheide, Inc. ___ Devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/devel

Just to be clear, XFree86 is NOT under the GPL - it's under a very different open source license originally derived from the MIT/X Consortium license, and closer to the BSD license than to GPL. -- -Alan Coopersmith- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sun Microsystems, Inc.- Sun Software Group User Experience Engineering: G11N: X Window System ___ Devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/devel
