Have a look here http://wiki.x.org/wiki/ModularDevelopersGuide Also the mailing list for modular xorg in http://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-modular/ Basically all you need,after pull out the sources,is to run the symlink.sh util/modular/symlink.sh /tmp/src/xc . and then the build script ./util/modular/build.sh For my convenience (debug) i splitted the build.sh in several parts,each one for every module. After exporting the variables,i run a script like PR=app for d in \ ${PR}/appres \ ${PR}/bdftopcf \ ${PR}/beforelight ....more apps.... do pushd ${d} sh autogen.sh --prefix=${PREFIX} >${LG}/${SELF}-${VE}-config 2>&1 || { echo -e "$RD Configure failed" exit 1 } make >${LG}/${SELF}-${VE}-make 2>&1 || { echo -e "$RD Make failed" exit 1 } env LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH make install >${LG}/${SELF}-${VE}-install 2>&1 || { echo -e "$RD Make Install failed" exit 1 } popd done You can see the right order,to build the modules at the end of the build.sh script. I think it's a hard desision for BLFS to choose in which direction has to go. Modular xorg clearly has some obvious advantages,from the other side the effort to maintan such a project,with the BLFS way is going to be huge. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-chat FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
