The recomended way for the DRI project is: mkdir build cd build lndir -silent -ignorelinks ../xc make -C xc World One caveat with this is that lndir is part of XFree86 (i.e., there is some assuption that you already have at least a partial xfree86 installation). -- Smile! http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap990315.html _______________________________________________ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert
