Adam, can you comment this? How much besides the Xorg server binary is needed in order to get this working? Is it realistic to make Xorg work in a XFree86 installation with only a few binary replacements? How soon is any such thing going to break again? Looks like we also need libextmod and libxtt. And the unresolved symbols in the savage driver module look like it requires some newer libxaa and libfb modules than the XFree86 ones. Anything else? I guess we could add any new xorg modules to the common snapshots. > > > Symbol FontCacheChangeSettings from > module /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/libextmod.a is unresolved! > Symbol FontCacheGetStatistics from > module /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/libextmod.a is unresolved! > Symbol FontCacheGetSettings from > module /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/libextmod.a is unresolved! > Symbol FontCacheCloseCache from module /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/fonts/libxtt.a > is unresolved! > Symbol FontCacheSearchEntry from module /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/fonts/libxtt.a > is unresolved! > Symbol FontCacheGetEntry from module /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/fonts/libxtt.a is > unresolved! > Symbol FontCacheInsertEntry from module /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/fonts/libxtt.a > is unresolved! > Symbol FontCacheGetEntry from module /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/fonts/libxtt.a is > unresolved! > Symbol FontCacheOpenCache from module /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/fonts/libxtt..a is > unresolved! > Symbol FontCacheSearchEntry from module /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/fonts/libxtt.a > is unresolved! > Symbol FontCacheGetBitmap from module /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/fonts/libxtt..a is > unresolved! > Symbol FontCacheSearchEntry from module /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/fonts/libxtt.a > is unresolved! > Symbol fbOverlayGetScreenPrivateIndex from > module /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/savage_drv.o is unresolved! > Symbol fbOverlayGetScreenPrivateIndex from > module /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/savage_drv.o is unresolved! > Symbol fbOverlayGetScreenPrivateIndex from > module /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/savage_drv.o is unresolved! > Symbol fbOverlayGetScreenPrivateIndex from > module /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/savage_drv.o is unresolved! > Symbol fbOverlayGetScreenPrivateIndex from > module /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/savage_drv.o is unresolved! > Symbol fbOverlayGetScreenPrivateIndex from > module /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/savage_drv.o is unresolved! > Symbol XAAGetScreenIndex from > module /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/savage_drv.o is unresolved! > Required symbol XAAGetCopyROP from > module /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/savage_drv.o is unresolved! > Required symbol XAAGetCopyROP_PM from > module /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/savage_drv.o is unresolved! > Symbol XAAGetScreenIndex from > module /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/savage_drv.o is unresolved! > Required symbol XAAGetCopyROP from > module /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/savage_drv.o is unresolved! > Required symbol XAAGetCopyROP_PM from > module /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/savage_drv.o is unresolved! > Required symbol XAAGetCopyROP from > module /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/savage_drv.o is unresolved! > Symbol XAAGetScreenIndex from > module /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/savage_drv.o is unresolved! > Required symbol XAAGetCopyROP from > module /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/savage_drv.o is unresolved! > Required symbol XAAGetCopyROP from > module /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/savage_drv.o is unresolved! > Required symbol XAAGetCopyROP from > module /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/savage_drv.o is unresolved! > > Fatal server error: > Some required symbols were unresolved > > > > > Maybe you can provide us some binary modules with the Xorg snapshot (libextmod > and libxtt). > > Thanks > | Felix Kühling <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://fxk.de.vu | | PGP Fingerprint: 6A3C 9566 5B30 DDED 73C3 B152 151C 5CC1 D888 E595 | ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IT Product Guide on ITManagersJournal Use IT products in your business?
