Alon, Thanks for the follow up.. (Sorry I'm posting at the top but no need to inline in code at this point). I was able to get a bit further on compiling but eventually the compile failed on GlyphPrint (or something, forget the name) not being defined later on.. I chatted with some people on freenode.net in #xorg and came to the conclusion that the X release in rhel 5 is too old to support xf86-video-qxl-0.0.17 as GlyphPrint wasn't defined in xorg 1.1.1. And according to Alanc in #xorg the ./configure script should have warned me that the release was too old (guess this is a bug??)
I did use #include <stdlib.h> to fix a bunch of the problems as you mentioned though (if anyone else runs into this). Not sure if this is yet another bug?

Any ideas or pointers > I can try? What version of gcc are you using? What version of X are you using? 0.0.17 doesn't build with the latest X, and those uint16_t errors look like a missing header. I get the uint16_t typedef from stdlib.h (it indirectly includes bits/types.h). you have /usr/include/xorg/privates.h with dixLookupPrivate ? (replace /usr with the root where you installed X if you aren't using the system's one). The uxa-priv:272 error is from a missing _X_INLINE definition, defined in /usr/include/X11/Xfuncproto.h . > > Here is output from configure: > > [mc7@pacelab29:~/spice/xf86-video-qxl-0.0.17$]: ./configure > --prefix=/opt/spice --enable-xspice=only checking build system type... > x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu checking host system type... > x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu checking for a BSD-compatible install... > /usr/bin/install -c checking whether build environment is sane... yes > checking for a thread-safe mkdir -p... /bin/mkdir -p checking for > gawk... gawk checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes checking > whether to enable maintainer-specific portions of Makefiles... no > checking for style of include used by make...
