You will need to run ldconfig as the root user first or some tests may fail. Now as the root user: ninja install && mkdir -pv /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d && cat >> /etc/sysconfig/createfiles << "EOF" /tmp/.ICE-unix dir 1777 root root /tmp/.X11-unix dir 1777 root root EOF ninja install && mkdir -pv /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d -Dsuid_wrapper=true: Builds the suid-root wrapper for legacy driver support on rootless xserver systems. -Dsystemd_logind=false: This switch disables systemd-logind elogind integration, allowing Xorg Server to work without having the systemd elogind PAM module configured. cat >> /etc/sysconfig/createfiles...: This command creates the /tmp/.ICE-unix and /tmp/.X11-unix directories at startup, and ensures that the permissions and ownership are correct as required by the server. -Dxephyr=true: This option allows building Xephyr if its dependencies are met. Installed Programs Installed Libraries Installed Directories gtf, X, Xnest, Xorg, Xvfb, and optionally Xephyr several under $XORG_PREFIX/lib/xorg/modules/ including the modesetting_drv.so driver /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d, $XORG_PREFIX/include/xorg, $XORG_PREFIX/lib/xorg, and $XORG_PREFIX/share/X11/xorg.conf.d Short Descriptions gtf calculates VESA GTF mode lines gtf X is a symbolic link to Xorg X Xephyr is a nested X server which supports modern X extensions Xephyr Xnest is a nested X server Xnest Xorg is the X11R7 X Server Xorg Xvfb is the virtual framebuffer X server for X Version 11 Xvfb modesetting_drv.so provides a video driver for machines using Kernel Mode Setting (KMS). This will use glamor if that has been enabled and the hardware offers acceleration modesetting_drv.so
