XFree86-4.3.0

[markh@…]

note that there's a test host.def file available at:

​http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/~markh/blfs/beta/host.def-0.1a

could people test it out so I know it works before I start writing it all up.

Bruce, before you start this (hopefully), I should point out this file: ​http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/~markh/blfs/beta/host.def-0.1a This is a pretty full featured X config file (goes in xc/config/host.def IIRC) which was designed for X-4.10 but shouldn't need any modification for X-4.2 (I hope). Chris and Jeremy spent ages going through digging out all the options which are available. Hope this is useful

There are still a few issues with the XFree86 instructions, but I'm changing the resolution to Fixed until there is some feedback.

From Skip Gaede: I am building X on a Nubus-Pmac (ppc 601). The CFLAGS argument in the book (-O2 -mcpu=601) caused the makekeys executable to segfault. I commented out the

#define DefaultGcc2PpcOpt -O2 -mcpu=601

line and now it's building fine. You might want to make note of that in the book.

Added comments about Power PC. Fixed typos.
