Now as the root user: make install && mkdir -pv /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d Command Explanations sed -i ...: This sed fixes several header files that are broken with Glibc 2.20 so the drivers using them wouldn't fail to build. --enable-dmx: This switch enables building of the DMX (Distributed Multihead X) server. --enable-glamor: This switch enables building of the Glamor DIX module which is required by some drivers and Xwayland. Remove it if you don't want to install libepoxy and are not going to need Xwayland or you don't have any hardware that requires Glamor (Radeon "Southern Islands" and later GPUs). --enable-suid-wrapper: This switch enables building of the suid-root wrapper for legacy driver support on rootless xserver systems.
