1. Readme for the XFree86 3.3.3 LinkKit
- For systems which don't use gcc-2, you may need to install libgcc.a if
the binary distribution you are using was built with gcc-2.
- Make sure that you have the XFree86 3.3.3 libraries
installed under
/usr/X11R6 if you will be linking Xnest with
the LinkKit. The LinkKit is now self-contained for the other servers.
- Edit the
xf86site.def file to define which servers you want
to build, and the drivers and extensions you want included.
- Set
HasGcc and HasGcc2 to match the compiler
you are using if the defaults aren't correct.
- If the LinkKit was built with gcc-2.x and you are using some other
compiler, you must install libgcc.a and set
NeedLibGcc to
YES.
- To build the 256 colour server:
set
XF86SVGAServer to YES.
- To build the 16 colour server:
set
XF86VGA16Server to YES.
- To build the monochrome server:
set
XF86MonoServer to YES.
- To build the S3 server:
set
XF86S3Server to YES.
- To build the Mach8 server:
set
XF86Mach8Server to YES.
- To build the Mach32 server:
set
XF86Mach32Server to YES.
- To build the Mach64 server:
set
XF86Mach64Server to YES.
- To build the P9000 server:
set
XF86P9000Server to YES.
- To build the AGX server:
set
XF86AGXServer to YES.
- To build the ET4000/W32 server:
set
XF86W32Server to YES.
- To build the IBM 8514/A server:
set
XF86I8514Server to YES.
- To build the I128 server:
set
XF86I128Server to YES.
- To build the GLINT server:
set
XF86GLINTServer to YES.
- To build the TGA server:
set
XF86TGAServer to YES.
- To build the GA-98NB/WAP server:
set
XF98GANBServer to YES.
- To build the NEC480 server:
set
XF98NEC480Server to YES.
- To build the NEC-CIRRUS/EPSON NKV/NKV2 server:
set
XF98NKVNECServer to YES.
- To build the WAB-S server:
set
XF98WABSServer to YES.
- To build the WAB-EP server:
set
XF98WABEPServer to YES.
- To build the WSN-A2F server:
set
XF98WSNAServer to YES.
- To build the Trident Cyber9320/9680 server:
set
XF98TGUIServer to YES.
- To build the Matrox Millennium/Mystique Server:
set
XF98MGAServer to YES.
- To build the Cirrus Logic CLGD7555 Server:
set
XF98SVGAServer to YES.
- To build the EGC server:
set
XF98EGCServer to YES.
- To build the NEC S3 server:
set
XF98NECS3Server to YES.
- To build the S3 PW/PCSKB server:
set
XF98PWSKBServer to YES.
- To build the S3 PW/LB server:
set
XF98PWLBServer to YES.
- To build the S3 GA-968 server:
set
XF98GA968Server to YES.
- To build the Xnest server:
set
XnestServer to YES.
- If you are building more than one Xserver, uncomment the
ServerToInstall line and set it to the name of the
Xserver you want to be the default server (i.e., the one that
the ``X'' sym-link points to).
- Set
XF86SvgaDrivers to the list of drivers you want to
include in the SVGA server.
- Set
XF86Vga16Drivers to the list of drivers you want to
include in the 16 colour server.
- Set
XF86Vga2Drivers to the list of drivers you want to
include in the monochrome vga server.
- Set
XF86MonoDrivers to the list of non-vga mono drivers
you want to include in the mono or VGA16 servers (when building
dual-headed servers).
- Note: the ordering of drivers determines the order in which the
probing is done. The `
generic' driver should be the last one
included in the Mono and VGA16 and SVGA servers because its probe
always succeeds.
- To use dynamically loadable modules(e.g. PEX, XIE):
set
ExtensionsDynamicModules to YES.
- To include the PEX extension:
set
BuildPexExt to YES.
- To include the X Image Extension:
set
BuildXIE to YES.
- To include the GLX Extension:
set
BuildGlxExt to YES.
- To exclude the Double Buffer Extension:
set
BuildDBE to NO.
- To exclude the Record Extension:
set
BuildRECORD to NO.
- To exclude the Screen Saver extension:
set
BuildScreenSaverExt to NO.
- Although it is possible to disable other extensions through this
mechanism, doing so is not recommended because savings in server size
are not appreciable, or the resulting server might even be crippled in
some way.
- If you are including a driver that it not part of the standard
distribution, make a directory in
drivers/vga256
(drivers/vga2 if it is for the VGA2 part of the Mono server,
drivers/vga16 if it is for the 16
colour server, or drivers/mono non-VGA part of the Mono and VGA16
servers) and copy either the source or .o file and a suitable Imakefile
into that directory. The name of the directory should be the same as the
name of the driver (refer to the documentation in the VGADriverDoc
directory for more details).
- To build the Makefile, run
./mkmf
- Run `
make' to link the server(s) as configured.
- Run `
make install' to install the new server(s).
- Run `
make clean' to remove the files that were created by this
procedure.
- If you edit the
xf86site.def file and change the selection
of servers
being built or the drivers included in them, repeat the above procedure.
If changing the selection of Xserver extensions being included it is
sufficient to run `make Makefile' instead of `./mkmf'.
- It is possible to see which drivers are included in the Xserver by
running it with the `
-showconfig' flag. To check which extensions
are included, start the Xserver and run `xdpyinfo'.
