You can put it wherever you want. The XORG_PREFIX note is about FHS compliance, but we've been thinking about removing that. You can use /usr/X11R6 if you'd like. If not /usr or /usr/X11R6, make a symlink /usr/X11R6 -> $XORG_PREFIX to be safe. There are a very few applications that expect X to be in a specific location. -- Dan -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
