Just to keep any potentially interested parties in the loop, I've been trying to build xorg-server-1.7.0 for the past few days. Lots of updates required to get the build environment to the point where the package would build, and most of the packages I needed were not available in the experimental repository (not even in source form): had to get them from upstream.
Has anyone had any success with 1.7.x on Alpha? I'll be able to try my build in another day or so. An earlier attempt to build the version in the git repository (1.7.99.1) succeeded, but would not run due to various undefined symbols in some of the modules: (II) LoadModule: "int10" (II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/libint10.so dlopen: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/libint10.so: undefined symbol: _alpha_inb (EE) Failed to load /usr/lib/xorg/modules/libint10.so (II) UnloadModule: "int10" (EE) Failed to load module "int10" (loader failed, 7) Other module failures I can reasonably attribute to the modules being out of date with respect to the server, but the int10 module was built and installed as part of the server code, so that particular failure made me blink a bit :-). -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Bob Tracy | "Every normal man must be tempted at times to spit [email protected] | upon his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin | slitting throats." -- H.L.
