Hi list,

I am trying to compile a Kdrive "Tiny X" XServer from sources. Unfortunately
the build process fails when it is processing the
programs/Xserver/hw/kdrive/vesa directory.

I am not a crack in working with Imake and make, so please excuse me if I
made a stupid mistake ;-)

I downloaded and unpacked the sources of Version 4.2.0.
I also tried 4.0.2 patched to 4.0.3 with the same results.

Using the guide in
http://www.pps.jussieu.fr/~jch/software/kdrive.html

I added the following settings to site.def:
(within /* AfterVendorCF */)

#define BuildServersOnly YES
#define KDriveXServer YES
#define TinyXServer YES
#define XvesaServer YES

Because I actually use a Chips & Technologies board I also addidtionaly
tried the following settings, which are nowhere documented (but the
directory "chips" does exist):
#define XchipsServer YES
#define XChipsServer YES

When I "make World", I get lots of errors in the kdrive-subtree (nowhere
else!) because of "asm" directives. So I removed the "-ansi -pedantic"
options in xfree86.cf in the line:
#define DefaultCCOptions -ansi -pedantic GccWarningOptions

Now, the directives are processed, but I get lots of "undefined reference to
'getTimeInMillis'" among other undefined references and the build fails
again.

With the XchipsServer lines I also get errors for "Xchips", without them
only for "Xvesa".
I also tried the "HasGcc2" line in site.def, because I am using gcc version
2.95.3, with the same results. Though, I don't know if I tested every
possible combination.

I am compiling on a SuSe 7.3 system. Make reports the following versions:
Linux 2.4.10-4GB i686 [ELF] (2.4.10)
Linux Distribution: SuSE
libc version: 6.2.4
binutils version: 3.1
GCC version: 2.95

Can anybody offer help? Thanks in advance.

Cheers,
  J�rn
