<title>Introduction to <application>XFree86</application></title>

<para><application>XFree86</application> is a freely redistributable
open-source implementation of the <application>X</application> Window System.
<application>XFree86</application> provides a client/server interface between
display hardware (the mouse, keyboard, and video displays) and the desktop
environment, while also providing both the windowing infrastructure and a
standardized application interface (<acronym>API</acronym>).</para>

  <para>The first three packages are the <application>XFree86</application>

  <title>Kernel Compilation Settings</title> 

  <para>If you have an Intel P6 (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later), it is
    recommended that you compile <acronym>MTRR</acronym> (Memory Type Range
    Registers) support into the kernel.  The kernel can map Cyrix and AMD
    <acronym>CPU</acronym>s to the <acronym>MTRR</acronym> interface, so selecting
    this option is useful for those processors also.  This option is found in the
    "Processor type and features" menu.  It can increase performance of image write
    operations 2.5 times or more on <acronym>PCI</acronym> or
    <acronym>AGP</acronym> video cards.
  </para>

  <indexterm zone="xfree86 xfree86-kernel">
    <primary sortas="d-xfree86">XFree86</primary>
  </indexterm>

  <para>In the "Character Devices" section, enable <acronym>AGP</acronym> Support 
    and select the chipset support on your motherboard.  If you do not know the 
    chipset, you may select all the chip types at the expense of extra kernel size. 
    You can usually determine your motherboard's chipset by running the command 
    <command>lspci</command>, a program from the <xref linkend="pciutils"/> package.
  </para>

  <para>In the "Character Devices" section, <emphasis>disable</emphasis> Direct 
    Rendering Manager unless you have a Direct Rendering Infrastructure
    (<acronym>DRI</acronym>) supported video card.  A complete list of 
    <acronym>DRI</acronym> supported video cards can be found at 
    <ulink url="http://dri.sourceforge.net" /> in the Status section. Currently, 
    supported cards include those from 3dfx (Voodoo, Banshee), 3Dlabs, 
    ATI (Rage Pro, Rage 128, Radeon 7X00, Radeon 2), Intel (i810, i815), and 
    Matrox (G200, G400, G450).
  </para>

  <para>Additionally NVidia provides their own closed source binary drivers,
    which do not make use of <acronym>DRI</acronym>. If you intend to use these 
    drivers, do not enable <acronym>DRI</acronym>.
  </para>

  <para>If you made any changes to the kernel configuration, recompile and
    install the new kernel.
  </para>

  <note><para>If you build <application>XFree86</application> in a 
    <command>chroot</command> environment, make sure the kernel version of the base 
    system and the target system are the same.

  <title>Creating <filename>host.def</filename></title>

  <para>Although <application>XFree86</application> will compile without a

    customizing the installation. Start from the

  </para>

  <note><para>The <filename>host.def</filename> file is a
    <application>C</application> file, not the usual configuration file.  If you 
    make any changes, be sure the comment characters (<userinput>/*</userinput>

<para><command>sed -i -e "s@^#include &lt;linux/config.h&gt;@...</command>: The 
<application>Linux-Libc-Headers</application> package installed in 
<acronym>LFS</acronym> installs a 
<filename>/usr/include/linux/config.h</filename> file which is not compatible 
with userspace applications. The recommended fix for applications including 
this file is to remove it (see <ulink 
url="http://ep09.pld-linux.org/~mmazur/linux-libc-headers/doc/FAQ">
linux-libc-headers FAQ</ulink>). The <command>sed</command> uses 
<command>grep -lr</command> to replace all occurences. If you desire, just
remove (comment) the line in the appropriate video driver file if you 
customized <filename>host.def</filename>.
</para>

<para><command>( make WORLDOPTS="" World 2&gt;&amp;1 | tee xfree-compile.log 
   &amp;&amp; exit $PIPESTATUS )</command>: 
This command runs multiple <filename>Makefile</filename>s to completely rebuild 
the system. <envar>WORLDOPTS</envar>="" disables the default setting to 
continue after encountering an error. <parameter>2&gt;&amp;1</parameter> 
redirects error messages to the same location as standard output. The 
<command>tee</command> command allows viewing of the output while logging the 
results to a file. The parentheses around the command runs the entire comand in 
a subshell and finally the <command>exit $PIPESTATUS</command> ensures the 
result of the <command>make</command> is returned as the result and not the 
result of the <command>tee</command> command.</para>

<note><para>When rebuilding <application>XFree86</application>, a separate 
command that may be used if only minor changes are made to the sources is 
<command>make Everything</command>. This does not automatically remove 
generated files and only rebuilds those files or programs that are out
