Native xorg on macppc and sparc64
Hello,
things seem to work so far - there are a few things in MesaLib's DRI
code that need to be patched but otherwise it looks ok. I can't really
try it on this G4 though since the r128 driver isn't built yet ( I'll
give it a shot on my other boxes later on ). Anyway, Xorg -configure
produced a mostly sane xorg.conf.
Some issues though:
- the way we create driver modules looks weird - we produce an so.x
file and a .so symlink to it. Xorg finds both. No real problem, just
annoying because it makes the module list in Xorg.0.log look weird and
way too long.
- why do we build the vesa driver on macppc? It makes no sense on non-
x86.
On sparc64 we run into pointer size vs. integer size problems in
MesaLib's R200 module. I need to look at the pkgsrc patches to fix
that ( macro hell... ).
Let's hope out netbsdSbus.c still works with Xorg.
have fun
Michael
