Thanks for the advioce.
Here is what I have done so far.-
i) I downloaded the most recent CVS sources of microwindows.
ii) I tried building on a computer with these:-
--o/s linux cblfs64-bit
--CPU amd64 2 cores
--compiler gcc-4.5.2,
--xwindows Xorg-7.6
--vnc libVNCserver{and client}-0.9.8 verified below
root [ /tmp ]#
root [ /tmp ]# ls /usr/lib/*vnc*
/usr/lib/libvncclient.a /usr/lib/libvncclient.so.0
/usr/lib/libvncserver.la /usr/lib/libvncserver.so.0.0.0
/usr/lib/libvncclient.la /usr/lib/libvncclient.so.0.0.0
/usr/lib/libvncserver.so
/usr/lib/libvncclient.so /usr/lib/libvncserver.a
/usr/lib/libvncserver.so.0
root [ /tmp ]#
To build microindows I did he following:-
A) cp src/Configs/config.x11 src OR
B) edit src/config ( changing /usr/local/lib/libfreetype.a to
/usr/lib/libfreetype.a ) THEN
C) (in either case ) run make
#-----------------------make ends lile so:-
make[3]: Circular /tmp/microwin-full-snapshot/src/lib/ <- /tmp/microwin-full-
snapshot/src/lib/ dependency dropped.

make[3]: *** No rule to make target `/tmp/microwin-full-

Error 2
make[1]: *** [subdir-/tmp/microwin-full-snapshot/src/demos/vnc/] Error 2
Advice ould be appreciated
Sincerely
Sibu
