run make distclean first... I'm not sure why this is a problem... Also, see what that czsk rule is actually trying to do... Maybe you can just comment it out (czsk seems like it would be for Czech and Slovak keymaps)
AFAIK, all you need installed to build X is: glibc 2.x GCC 2.x (2.95.2 recommended. 3.0 probably works) flex bison awk (don't know if this is absolutely necessary, but I think so) sed an sh-compatible shell (ash, bash, pdksh) that can be accessed as /bin/sh (almost all Linux setups have this, and all BSD setups do) zlib (X comes with a zlib tree, but use an external one anyway) grep ncurses 5.x (4.x works, I think, but there are few legitimate reasons to keep using it) If using Linux, a 2.4.x kernel is *HIGHLY* recommended, especially if you have an ATi Rage 128 or Radeon, Matrox G200/G4?0, 3dfx Voodoo Banshee/3/4/5, Intel i810 or 3DLabs GMX 2000 Recommended Perl (this might be necessary. I always install perl anyway, so I've never tried without it) Hardware that X likes, of course (anything Matrox, most ATi, most 3dfx, some nVidia) If anyone spots any major omissions, lemme know... This was all pulled from my rather falliable memory. -----Original Message----- From: Simon [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, October 02, 2001 2:12 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Newbie]Install problem Thanks... That helped. :) Next problem: It now dies here instead: make[4]: Entering directory '/usr/src/xc/programs/xkbdcomp/symbols' install -c -m 0444 symbols.dir /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb/symbols.dir make[4]: *** No rule to make target 'czsk', needed by 'install'. Stop. Is there a list of all the packages I should have installed so I don't need to keep asking these questions?
