I use /usr/src/xc to group the Xorg sources together. I have 248 directories in /usr/src right now and 17 in /usr/src/xc. When I'm working on xorg, it's convenient. It's also convenient to group files for things like kde, trinity, or gnome. You do not have to use our recommendations or course, but there's a lot implied in the book that is the result of many years of experience. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
