3 Reconfiguring the server (source distribution)

Contents of this section

To build a different set of servers or servers with a different set of drivers installed:

  1. Make sure the source for any new drivers is in the correct place (e.g., driver source for the SVGA server should be in a subdir of xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/vga256/drivers).
  2. Change the settings of the server defines (eg XF86SVGAServer as described above) in xf86site.def to specify which servers you wish to build. Also, change the driver lists to suit your needs.
  3. From xc/programs/Xserver, run:
         make Makefile
         make Makefiles
         make depend
         make
