I know it should not include the libdrm, but I could not compile the
mesa without libdrm, please see following error. How to resolve that
issue?

I don't know there it coms from, my graphic card is "00:02.0 VGA

I have also add libxcbproto and libxcb to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH as
requested the libraries versions in CentOS 6.2 is newer than the
system installed.

Hmm, the LD_LIBRARY_PATH seems set properly.
$ echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
/usr/local/mesallvm/9.1/lib:/usr/local/libllvm/3.2/lib
I also changed to following configure:
${SOURCE}/${CONFIGURE} --prefix=${INSTALL} --enable-xlib-glx
--disable-dri --enable-gallium-llvm --with-llvm-shared-libs
--with-llvm-prefix=/usr/local/libllvm/3.2
$ make
$ make install
But still not luck, could not get OpenGL renderer string to llvm, nor
can find Gallium .
$ glxinfo | grep -i LLVM
$ glxinfo | grep -i Gallium
Nothing coming.
Are there anything missing or setting wrong in above configure? Could
you please give me a correct configuration?
Thanks.
Kind regards,
Jupiter
