Re: C++ code in Xfree86?
Hi, 1)for cross compiling, does we need to modify cross.def and save as host.def? No, you have to make a new file host.def where you put in all the configuration define's 2)In Cross.def there is a line #define CplusplusCmd Is there any C++ code in Xfree86-4.2.0 source? we don't have C++ compiler for our target platform. never mind, you wudn't need ++ anywhere (at least my conf never needed) Also kindly provide some document/links on successful porting of Xfree86 to new Hardware platform. http://www.handhelds.org/minihowto/building-x.html -Jassi On Fri, 09 Jan 2004 Suresh Chandra Mannava wrote : Dear Friends, I struck up with cross compile of Xfree86, Here are some queries which I need your generous help.

Shudn't there be #include freetype2/ft2build.h so that any other software can figure out the headers easily. I mean the same for all the include's which can cause such problems. No, ft2build.h is correct. I you use the XFree86 installation, then you need -IProjectRoot/include/freetype2. It is arguable that it would have been better if the freetype2 headers were installed one level up, but I don't know what we'd break if we changed that now. On the other hand, an advantage of the way it is now is that it is less likely that an app will unintentionally use the XFree86-provided headers. Things that use imake that will get the build flags right. There are a few minor bugs in the way FREETYPE2INCLUDES is set, but they err on the side of redundancy. Actually, I'll take some of that back. For consistency with default freetype2 installations, we should put ft2build.h in ProjectRoot/include. However, you still need -I.../include/freetype2 to find the other headers. This is even documented in many versions of ft2build.h: /* prefix/include/freetype2 must be in your current inclusion path */ Comments in that file suggest that the FreeType people will be changing that structure in some future release to make that unnecessary.

Re: Re: devices Xfbdev
Hi Friends,
I am a bit confused ... I understand, if i crosscompiple(Xipaq) When we do make
World (I mean only the order of files)::
host.def - linux.cf - kdrive.cf - {xitsy.cf|tinyX.cf ; cross.def}
The file iPAQH3600.cf says define KDriveServer and XiPAQH3500Server in host.def, but
there is no conditional inclusion of iPAQH3600.cf in kdrive.cf (like its for tinyX.cf
and itsy.cf).
How wud this file(iPAQH3600.cf)get involved inthe process, if its not mentioned in
kdrive.cf? So... either this has to be _hardwired_ in the compilation process or WE
have put conditional inclusion entry in the kdrive.cf like ::
#if XiPAQH3500Server
#include iPAQH3600.cf
#endif
I think the latter case... what say, experts?
I wud like to write my complete cross-compilation experience ..if i get to know all
these detail... so that the _big_ guys wud have time to do more rewarding things than
answering new-bie questions like mine :)
Maybe thats the only way for me to express my gratitude.

Jassi
Re: Re: Xfbdev error
Hi David, I _do_ have shared libraries. Can u please tell me the OPTION, to give while compiling Xfbdev, by which it knows of the shared libs being present already. I mean something to be define'd or undef'd in the any .def file.? All these libs libX*.so.* also get compipled with the Xfbdev. Or do i have to give serveronly define?

Re: how to build an embedded X-window
Hi joseph, I'm new in embedded Linux and XFree86 world. Now I have built a embedded linux on my CF card (32MB). Welcome to the community. ThenI want to build a embedded platform with X window. What paper should I read first? I think you need GUI, not particularly X windows. Clarify for further reply. In my opinion, I am going to XFree86.org to download the XFree86 4.3.0 (or 4.4.0) package. It would be an overkill to put XFree package on an embedded device. Then, rebuild the XFree86 and then install it to my target CF card. Is this thinking correct? Theoretically YES, but as i said you shud need XFree86 for an embedded device. Perhaps you may go for Qt/Embedded or the like, which is especially for embedded devices. How do I reduce the size of the XFree86 environment? Remove the unnecessary files? You don't need to reduce anything .perhaps only trouble ;-) if you use Qt/Embedded. Hope this gives you a start, Jassi
embedded (GPL)Xfree86
Dear all, I m working on porting the X11 onto an embedded environment. The regular XFree86 is obviously MUCH MORE than needed.
