I know how to recompile my kernel!
Here is a complete description of the problem in an easy to follow
format.
SYSTEM INFO:
*HP Pavilion N5495 Laptop
*i830M chipset
*RedHat Linux 7.2
PREVIOUS VERSION OF XFREE86 AND WHERE IT WAS INSTALLED:
*XFree86 4.1.0
*Was installed in /usr/X11R6 and /etc/X11
*Has since been mv'd out of the way
CVS VERSION I'M INSTALLING AND WHERE I'M INSTALLING IT TO:
*Latest CVS as of 12/7/2001
*Installing in /usr/X11R6 and /etc/X11
THE EXACT STEPS I TAKE TO INSTALL THE CVS:
*I make a directory and lndir the xc directory into it
*I edit the the site.def and uncomment the HasGcc2
*I then run make World >& world.log and tail -f the world.log
*I finnally make install >& install.log and tail -f the install.log
PROBLEM INCLUDING PARTIAL LOG:
*Fails with a list of unresolved symbols and then "Fatal server error:
Caught signal 11. Server aborting" everytime I run xf86cfg or XFree86
-configure.
(Unresolved symbols shown in the paritial log below)
EVERYTHINGS FINE ABOVE THIS POINT....
(II) Loading /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/linux/libint10.a
(II) Module int10: vendor="The XFree86 Project"
compiled for 4.1.99.1, module version = 1.0.0
ABI class: XFree86 Video Driver, version 0.5
AND THEN ALL HELL BREAKS LOOSE....
