Dear Justin
Now installing X on DragonFly 3.2 doesn't work! It bails out during the
building of MesaLib with
In file included from mach64_context.c:46:
mach64_context.h:302:22: error: byteswap.h: No such file or directory
This is what I am going to do:
1. have a lie down
2. install a current system without X
3. use, explore, etc
4. experiment with installing X
I live mostly in emacs, and I'm starting to use tmux and mu4e (an email
client for emacs), so 3 will be ok.
For 4 I shall journey through the bsd and xorg forums of the world. I'll
report back once I've got the answers I need.
I shall install freebsd rather than DragonFly. That might give me access
to a broader population for 4.
This Thinkpad x60 is a nice little machine, but it's never had a chance
to shine: it's always had Windows XP or Ubuntu on it, neither of which
are very exciting.
DragonFly 3.4 with dports is always an option.
It has a much newer xorg server.
