I just downloaded the tar.gz files from xfree86.org, then m4, bison, flex, and perl from their respective sites and compiled them natively using the ELDK 2.1.0. It was quite easy for my ppc_7xx platform and I had xboard up and running on my embedded 800MHz PowerPC-750FX in no time.

Hi all, I need to install X libraries and apps on our custom 855T-based board running Linux. Since ELDK derives from Yellowdog, I thought I'd use RPMs from Yellowdog. Trouble is, if I 'ppc-rpm' an YDL package, I get an architecture mismatch (which is not surprising, all ELDK packages being 'ppc_8xx' while YDL packages are 'ppc'). I've tried a sneaky --ignorearch, which led ppc-rpm to seemingly accept the previously offending package. But then, if I 'ppc-rpm -qa', the package isn't listed. Anybody help! :) Thanks in advance, Albert. ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/
