Problem 1: When I first ran "make install", there was some hp keyboard config thing that was a file, where the installer wanted it to be a directory. I renamed that file from "hp" to "hp.original", and then I could install cleanly.

Yes, I've seen this to. It tries replace a file with a directory and it fails. "make install" of any recent XFree86 will break unless you remove the old file first.


This is a bug, which should be fixed.  The directory should be "HP"
(that's how it's referenced elsewhere).  Maybe installs would still
break on platforms with case-insensitive filesystems though, and that
should be fixed also.

A bug in which software: Mandrake 9.1, or XF86?



Maybe it's possible that this change could have been avoided by putting the new descriptions in the old file?
