Subject:   Loadable Modules in ELF XF86
Message-ID:  <19980921163048.A869@scsn.net>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
    After building a ELF XFree86 from the port committed last night, I
am seeing the following when starting the X server:

-------------------------------------------------------------------
<SNIP>

XF86Config: /etc/XF86Config
(**) stands for supplied, (--) stands for probed/default values
xf86Jstk.so: /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/xf86Jstk.so: Undefined symbol "xf86GetMotion
Events"
xie.so: /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/xie.so: Undefined symbol "isItTimeToYield"
pex5.so: /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/pex5.so: Undefined symbol "EventSwapVector"

<SNIP>
------------------------------------------------------------------

Obviously, the X loadable modules don't work too well as ELF...  I assume
that this can't possibly work, ELF LKMs with an a.out kernel, no?  Or am I
just way off base here?

    If this is the case, is there any way to force the loadable modules
to be built as a.out until we have an ELF kernel?
