Hi Guys,
I'm currently reinstalling CRUX (due to a HDD failure), and decided to try out Danm's v2.2 AMD64 test build.
Being one for trying new stuff, I've successfully installed the latest
kernel revision and have decided to try out X11R7.1 from X.org (If I
stuff it up, nothing's lost due to being a clean install).
Anyway, I'm only getting about 90% the way through the install, with
an error on xkbcomp causing a floating point exception when rebuilding
The build was started using the following command:
# PATH=/usr/X11R7/bin:$PATH ./build-from-tarballs.sh -m /opt/src_/X11R7/Mesa-6.5 /usr/X11R7
Tilman has an x11r7 repo, I used that. Perhaps you should give it a go.
---[/etc/ports/x11r7.rsync]--- host=code-monkey.de collection=crux-ports-x11r7 destination=/usr/ports/x11r7 ---[EOF]---
Thanks, I've finally managed to get X11R7 installed and working. :) (Updated to gcc4.1 and a friend downloaded the entire X11R7.1 source from git and bzipped it for me). Anyway, I've come across another problem. ATI drivers... I grabbed the v8.28.8 rpm from ati.com for x.org (the 17MB one, not the full 50MB+ installer), and getting a message about version mismatch when trying to start X when using this driver? ------ ABI class: X.Org Video Driver, version 1.0 [R200Setup] X version mismatch - detected X.org 7.1.0, required X.org 6.8.0.0 ----- Does anyone know a way around this, or do I need to download the full 50MB+ installer and pray that I have all the requirements it needs, just so I can get the correct driver installed? Darran PS. Who said life was meant to be easy? :P
