Config.status has a line: S["X11_DEVS"]="" In Makefile.in, there is a corresponding line: DEVICE_DEVS=$(DISPLAY_DEV) @X11_DEVS@ Since @X11_DEVS@ is unset, this becomes DEVICE_DEVS=$(DISPLAY_DEV). DISPLAY_DEV is bbox.dev so only that one gets built. If, before running configure, this line is commented out and a line further up - #DEVICE_DEVS=$(DISPLAY_DEV) $(DD)x11.dev \ $(DD)x11alpha.dev $(DD)x11cmyk.dev $(DD)x11gray2.dev \ $(DD)x11gray4.dev $(DD)x11mono.dev - is uncommented, then the X11 drivers are built. I'm going to try building gs-9.10 in this system to see if there is any difference. -- Hazel Russman <[email protected]> -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
