#2520: Various Xorg Fixes -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- Reporter: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | Owner: [email protected] Type: task | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: future Component: BOOK | Version: SVN Severity: normal | Keywords: -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- Taken directly from Alexander's comments for #2391 (Comment #8):
--disable-static: removes useless *.a files, please do the same with all drivers. --with-\*=/etc/\*: paths --disable-xorgconfig, --disable-xorgcfg: don't build interactice configuration tools. As demonstrated on the LiveCD, one xorg.conf with a single adjustment (video driver) suits everybody. As a side effect, Cards and Options files (that contain obsolete content anyway) are removed. Anyway, the programs look for these files in $XORG_PREFIX/lib/X11 (see the source), while they are actually installed in $XORG_PREFIX/share/X11. So these programs don't work now anyway, and nobody noticed. Remove them. --with-int10=x86emu: required for the "vesa" driver and some others that call into the BIOS to work under 64-bit kernels and 32-bit userspace. Yes, I know this is beyond BLFS, but this bug has been reported on the LiveCD and fixed. --disable-type1: freetype can handle Type1 fonts just fine. -- Ticket URL: <http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/ticket/2520> BLFS Trac <http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs> Beyond Linux From Scratch -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-book FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
