<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> programs, 
the fourth and fifth are fonts, the sixth is normal documentation, and the seventh

<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>

<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 doing:</para>
<screen><userinput><command>cat /proc/pci</command></userinput></screen>

<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). 
If you do enable <acronym>DRI</acronym> here, make sure you select the video card(s) you want 
to support as a <emphasis>module</emphasis>.</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 the kernel.</para>

<para>Copy <filename>/usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot/bzImage</filename> and
<filename>/usr/src/linux/System.map</filename> to
<filename>/boot</filename>, edit <filename>/etc/lilo.conf</filename>
appropriately and run <filename>lilo</filename>. If you use 
<filename>grub</filename>, edit <filename>/boot/grub/grub.conf</filename> 
and add the new kernel to the boot menu.
</para>

<note><para>If you build <application>XFree86</application> in a chroot environment, make sure the kernel 
version of the base system and the target system are the same.  This is 
especially important if you enabled <acronym>DRI</acronym> support as a module as 
instructed above.</para></note>

</sect3>

<sect3><title>Creating <filename>host.def</filename></title>

<para>Although <application>XFree86</application> will compile without a
<filename>host.def</filename> file, the following file 
is recommended for customizing the installation. Start from 
the <filename class="directory">xc</filename> directory.</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> and <userinput>*/</userinput>) 
are balanced.  Most of the entries in the file below are
commented out with the default settings shown.

<title>Updating Direct Rendering Infrastructure (<acronym>DRI</acronym>)</title>
<para>If you have one of the supported <acronym>DRI</acronym> cards and
have enabled <acronym>DRI</acronym> kernel modules as explained
above, you now need to update the kernel modules to ensure they are compatible with the
current version of <application>XFree86</application>.  To do this, perform the following:</para>

<screen><userinput><command>cd programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/os-support/linux/drm/kernel &amp;&amp; 
make  CC=/opt/gcc-2.95.3/bin/gcc -f Makefile.linux  &amp;&amp;

to the kernel module library and rerun <command>depmod -a</command>.</para></warning>

<note><para>If you created <acronym>AGP</acronym> support as a module when compiling the kernel, you may

<title>Command explanations</title>

<para><command>( make WORLDOPTS="" World 2&gt;&amp;1 | tee xfree-compile.log 
   &amp;&amp; exit $PIPESTATUS )</command>: 
This command runs multiple makefiles 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 
of date.</para></note>

ln -sf ../X11R6/lib/{X11,libGL.so{,.1}} /usr/lib

These commands are present to enable other (broken) packages to build
against <application>XFree86</application>.  We do this even though the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard
says:
"In general, software must not be installed or managed via the above 
symbolic links. They are intended for utilization by users only."</para>

<para><command>make  CC=/opt/gcc-2.95.3/bin/gcc -f Makefile.linux</command>: This builds the

the kernel.</para>

<para><command>cp gamma.o radeon.o sis.o r128.o i810.o i830.o mga.o tdfx.o

<para>Run:</para>
<screen><userinput><command>source ~/.bash_profile</command></userinput></screen>

<para>Set up your mouse:
<screen><userinput><command>ln -s psaux /dev/mouse</command></userinput></screen>

Adjust the symbolic link as necessary for other types of mice.  For instance, 
a serial mouse on the first serial port would be linked to ttyS1.</para>

<para>Create the <filename>XF86Config</filename> file with:
<screen><userinput><command>cd ~
XFree86 -configure</command></userinput></screen>
The screen will go black and you may hear some clicking of the monitor.  This
command will create a file, <filename>XF86Config.new</filename> in your home
directory.</para>

<para>Edit <filename>XF86Config.new</filename> to suit your system.  The 
details of the file are located in the man 
page <command>man XF86Config</command>.  Some things you may want to 
do are:</para>

<itemizedlist>

<listitem><para>Section "Files". Change the order of the font paths searched. 
You may want to put 100dpi fonts ahead of 75dpi fonts if your system normally 
comes up closer to 100 dots per inch.  You may want to remove some font 
directories completely.</para></listitem>

<listitem><para>Section "Monitor".  Specify the <parameter>VertRefresh</parameter>
and <parameter>HorizSync</parameter> values if the system does not automatically 
detect the monitor and its values.</para></listitem>

<listitem><para>Section "InputDevice".  You may want to change the keyboard 
autorepeat rate by 
adding <parameter>Option "Autorepeat" "250 30"</parameter>.</para></listitem>

<listitem><para>Section "Device".  You may want to set some of the options 
available for your selected video driver.  A description of the driver
parameters is in the man page for your driver.</para></listitem>

<listitem><para>Section "Screen".  Add a DefaultDepth statement such 
as: <parameter>DefaultDepth 16</parameter>. In the SubSection for your 
default depth, add a modes line such 
as: <parameter> Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768"</parameter>.
The first mode listed will normally be the starting 
resolution.</para></listitem>

</itemizedlist>

<para>Test the system with:
<screen><userinput><command>XFree86 -xf86config ~/XF86Config.new</command></userinput></screen>
You will only get a gray background with an X-shaped mouse cursor, but it 
confirms the system is working.  Exit with Control-Alt-Backspace.  If the 
system does not work, take a look 
at <filename>/var/log/XFree86.0.log</filename> to see what went 
wrong.</para>

<para>Move the configuration file to its final location:</para>
<screen><userinput><command>mv ~/XF86Config.new /etc/X11/XF86Config</command></userinput></screen>

<para>Create <filename>.xinitrc</filename>:
<screen><userinput><command>cat &gt; ~/.xinitrc &lt;&lt; "EOF"</command>
# Begin .xinitrc file
xterm  -g 80x40+0+0   &amp;
xclock -g 100x100-0+0 &amp;
twm
<command>EOF</command></userinput></screen>
This provides an initial screen with an xterm and a clock that is managed by a 
simple window manager, Tab Window Manager.  For details of twm, see the 
man page.</para>

<note>

<para>When needed, <application>XFree86</application> creates the directory
<filename>/tmp/.ICE-unix</filename> if it does not exist. If this directory is
not owned by root, <application>XFree86</application> delays startup by a few seconds
and also appends a warning to the logfile. This also affects startup of other
applications. To improve performance, it is advisable to manually create the directory
before XFree86 uses it. Add the file creation to <filename>/etc/sysconfig/createfiles</filename>
that is sourced by the
<filename>/etc/rc.d/init.d/cleanfs</filename> startup script.</para>
