The pre-compiled binaries for alpha were built on sourceforge's now-defunct
compile farm.  They were built with the minimal host.def file in
xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/etc/bindist/Linux-axp/.  That had glibc
2.3.?, and I don't recall the gcc version.

That's just the thing.

The compile works. When I go to run the program after the compile, it
locks up after showing the video's BIOS line. No log file is generated
either. (XFree86.0.log is 0 size)

If I knew the environment that the pre-compiled binaries were made in,
I could possibly see what the alpha is expecting versus what I'm giving
it.

For the record, this is done on Linux version 2.6.21.3.

Thanks

Brian

[XFree86] Binary vs source on alpha

2007-07-07 Thread Brian Evans
Hello.

I am having difficulties using a compiled source version of your 4.6.0
release as it locks up my Noritake Primo Alpha machine, AlphaServer 800
5/500 to be precise.

The odd thing is that your pre-compiled binaries for alpha work just
fine.

Can you please explain the compilation setup and gcc flags you use
for them?

I might help me tremendously in getting a stable custom compilation.
Currently using gcc 3.4.6 and glibc 2.3.5.

Thanks,

Brian
