Package Information Download (HTTP): Download (FTP): Download MD5 sum: &xorg-server-md5sum; Download size: &xorg-server-size; Estimated disk space required: &xorg-server-buildsize; Estimated build time: &xorg-server-time; Additional Downloads Required patch: Xorg Server Dependencies Required and Optional User Notes: If you intend to build with Mesa, you must have the Mesa source directory available when building the Xorg-server. A security vulnerability have been identified in the xorg-server package. Apply a patch to fix this vulnerability with the following command: patch -Np1 -i ../xorg-server-&xorg-server-version;-xcmisc-1.patch Install the server by running the following commands: ./configure $XORG_CONFIG \ --with-mesa-source='</full/path/to>/Mesa-&mesalib-version;' \ --with-module-dir=$XORG_PREFIX/lib/X11/modules \ --with-dri-driver-path=$XORG_PREFIX/lib/X11/modules/dri \ --with-xkb-output=/var/lib/xkb \ --enable-install-setuid && make This package does not come with a test suite. Now as the root user: make install --with-mesa-source=...: This switch directs the build system to the location of the Mesa source directory. This must be an absolute path. If you wish to build without Mesa, omit this switch. --with-module-dir=...: This parameter sets the destination for the installed modules. --with-dri-driver-path=...: This is the location of the Mesa DRI drivers. --enable-install-setuid: The Xorg binary must run as the root user. This switch ensures that the binary is installed setuid when make is run by an unprivileged user. --disable-glx: Disable building of the GLX extension. This parameter is required if building without Mesa. --disable-dri: Disable building of the DRI extension. This parameter is required if building without Mesa. --disable-xprint: Disable building of the Xprint extension and server. This parameter is required if building without Mesa.
