patch to make 4.3.0 build on FreeBSD 5.0-Current alpha

2003-03-04 Thread fmcc
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

2003-03-04 Thread Kendall Bennett
Hi Guys, I know I have asked this before, but I can't seem to find my emails and the mailing list archive does not seem to be responding. What sort of back/forward compatibility is there with the XFree86 driver modules? From memory last time I tested this, if I compile a 4.2.0 module it will

Fixes needed to compile 4.3.0 on Solaris with Sun C

2003-03-04 Thread Alan Coopersmith
