Just to confirm, I did a rebuild with xorg-server 1.12.4, and all
xf86-video-* drivers compiled.

Except for one, xf86-video-intel, but that is normal. Also when I used
T2 back in November 2012, the same thing.
I can't recall exactly what the problem was. But, I was able to
compile it later, in a running Puppy, which I will do again this time.

I am building that Puppy right now, using the T2 binary packages, so
will very soon find out if it is all sane.

Regards,
Barry Kauler
