Well good day to you Sir. It is good to see that you are well, at least I hope so, and that you are still deeply into X. It would be of the very greatest value if you were still doing the good work that you do on Solaris also. I was afraid to even breech the topic and it was only after a week of my own quiet flail and mistakes that I dare wander into this maillist. My hope was that a bare bones Debian install would be a good path of least resistance with an actual Xorg package being built on Solaris somewhere down the road. Indeed, yes, good to see your name on an email. Having said all that, I am less comfortable in Linux than Solaris but such is life. I had CFLAGS in my .profile ( .bashrc etc ) that simply shot me in the foot. At the moment I am going to try to use these : aster $ echo $CFLAGS -m64 -g -malign-double -fexceptions -fpic -fvisibility=default -mtune=opteron -march=opteron -m128bit-long-double -mpc80 -Wl,-q At least reasonable if not a bit verbose. I am not too sure where the libs required for X will reside otherwise I would do -Wl,--rpath=foo now to ensure the dynamic section of the ELF struct pointed to the correct RPATH. For now I think I will stay in a tight loop going from "try, fail, identify" through to "reset, correct the deps needed, try again" until everything just builds out of the gate. Hopefully the final bits of getting X to start with a dead simple wm like twm will be a no brainer.
