159 <para>
160 <parameter>--enable-glamor</parameter>: This switch enables building
161 of the Glamor DIX module which is required by some drivers and
162 <command>Xwayland</command>. Remove it if you don't want to install
163 <application>libepoxy</application> and are not going to need
164 <command>Xwayland</command> or you don't have any hardware that
165 requires Glamor (Radeon "Southern Islands" and later GPUs). It is
166 also required to build the modesetting driver, which is a generic
167 Xorg Video driver for hardware that has a KMS driver.
168 </para>
169
170 <para>
171 <parameter>--enable-suid-wrapper</parameter>: This switch enables building
172 of the suid-root wrapper for legacy driver support on rootless xserver
173 systems.
174 </para>
175
176 <para>
177 <option>--enable-dmx</option>: This switch enables building of the DMX
178 (Distributed Multihead X) server. Use it if you want to build DMX.
179 </para>
180
181 <para>
182 <option>--enable-kdrive</option>: This switch enables building of the
183 kdrive servers such as <command>Xephyr</command> and
184 <command>Xfbdev</command>. Use it if you have installed optional
185 xcb-util packages and want to build the mentioned programs.

187
188 <para>
189 <option>--disable-systemd-logind --enable-install-setuid</option>: These
190 switches disable <command>systemd-logind</command> integration and
191 restore the setuid bit to the <command>Xorg</command> executable,
192 allowing <application>Xorg Server</application> to work without having
193 the <application>systemd</application> PAM module installed and set up.
