I've successfully installed the various libraries and modules from DRI CVS on top of an X.org build, and it appears to work. (No great surprise that they're binary compatible still, I suppose.) Instructions are on the Building page on the wiki, along with suitably scary warning text; I probably missed something in the process so corrections are welcomed.
It strikes me that this is probably a good thing for the Long Slow Decoupling of DRI from the X server, and that the given X.org instructions ought to work for XFree86 users as well. This is great, because it means a) users don't clobber their X libs and server binary when installing DRI CVS, and b) DRI doesn't need to be synced against some other X server tree nearly as much. Everyone wins. To that end I'm working on a shell script that would automate this minimalist install process, along with some magic to make it play nicely with Gentoo's OpenGL switcher (and any other OS- or distro-specific hooks). Any interest in seeing this committed to CVS? - ajax ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.
