Hello everyone, I was playing around a bit with recent X.org snapshots and so-called ATI superpatch in order to get TV-out working on my ATI Technologies Inc M9+ 5C61 [Radeon Mobility 9200 (AGP)] card. Thanks to existing x11-servers/xorg-server-snap port, I was able to start pretty quickly. However it's time to give results back and I started playing with the port to upgrade it to the newest snapshot. My current patch is there: http://akson.sgh.waw.pl/~saper/FreeBSD/xorg-server-snap/20051003/xorg-server-6.8.99.16-diff I have a question that require deeper knowledge of the X server internal structure: 1. Makefile generation process complains that BuildLibraries variable is already defined in xorg.cf line 169 (to YES) and gets redefined in local host.def generated by the FreeBSD configure script. Looks like we set BuildServersOnly to YES BuildXFree86ConfigTools to YES and therefore BuildLibrariesForConfigTools gets set to YES and the BuildLibraries gets redefined. What is the correct setting for our port? Should we manually override BuildLibrariesForConfigTools to "NO"? 2. Do you think there is a way to get this port testable using porttools? I tried to do that but without X libs installed in porttools temporary directory it does not work (I would need to point additionaly to $X11BASE/lib and $X11BASE/include files in additionally to $PREFIX/include and $PREFIX/lib). Is there some easy solution to this? -- << Marcin Cieslak // saper@system.pl >>
