Firstly, appologies if this is to the wrong address (I've never participated in a mailing list before),
When compiling XDirectFB, with the XFree86 4.4.0 release and the latest XFree86 CVS (08/06/2004), I get the same libdirectfb.a problem that a few other people are getting... make[4]: Nothing to be done for `all'. make[4]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/directFB/xc/programs/Xserver/hw/vfb' make[3]: *** No rule to make target `hw/directfb/libdirectfb.a', needed by `XDirectFB'. Stop. make[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/directFB/xc/programs/Xserver' make[2]: *** [all] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/directFB/xc/programs' make[1]: *** [all] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/directFB/xc' make: *** [all] Error 2 I found a copy of libdirectfb.a in a previous release of DirectFB (0.9.9 I think it was), and tried putting that in xc/programs/Xserver/hw/directfb, but then that just churns out a whole load of errors about undefined references to things such as InitInput (or similar). As for the error with DirectFB-extras: When I try to compile it, it fails (both versions 0.9.16 and 0.9.13) with... idirectfbimageprovider_imlib2.c: In function `IDirectFBImageProvider_IMLIB2_RenderTo': idirectfbimageprovider_imlib2.c:266: warning: passing arg 2 of `dfb_scale_linear_32' makes integer from pointer without a cast idirectfbimageprovider_imlib2.c:266: warning: passing arg 4 of `dfb_scale_linear_32' makes pointer from integer without a cast idirectfbimageprovider_imlib2.c:266: warning: passing arg 6 of `dfb_scale_linear_32' makes pointer from integer without a cast idirectfbimageprovider_imlib2.c:266: warning: passing arg 7 of `dfb_scale_linear_32' makes pointer from integer without a cast idirectfbimageprovider_imlib2.c:266: too many arguments to function `dfb_scale_linear_32' make[3]: *** [idirectfbimageprovider_imlib2.lo] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/directFB/DirectFB-extra-0.9. 13/interfaces/IDirectFBImageProvider'make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/directFB/DirectFB-extra-0.9.13/interfaces' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/directFB/DirectFB-extra-0.9.13' make: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2 I've done a few searches in the usual places (search engines, searched the mailing list) for answers but I haven't seen any. Is there any known solution for these (mainly the XDirectFB one) problems? I am running Slackware 9.1 (if that's any use). ------------------------------------------------- This mail sent through IMP: http://horde.org/imp/
