I've retrieved ftp://ftp.x.org/pub/R6/xc-?.tar.gz and untarred it (114MB). Then I applied ftp://ftp.xfree86.org/pub/XFree86/3.1.1/patches/XFree86-3.1.1.diff.gz to the untarred source tree (only 5 files came up as unpatchable: B4light.ad, Imakefile, XScrnSaver.c, b4light.c, b4light.man). I did not untar contrib (disk space limitations), so I figure that's where those files belong. After modifying site.def and xf86site.def to my requirements, "make World >& World.log" fails very early: making Makefiles in ../Xext... mv Makefile Makefile.bak making Makefiles in ../XExExt... cd: can't cd to XExExt mv Makefile Makefile.bak ../../config/imake/imake: not found and on until make dies. A diff -r between /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/config and the source config directory still shows a lot of differences, which spells trouble. Is there another patch file I should be using, or another source tree altogether? Should I just retrieve ftp.xfree86.org:/pub/XFree86/3.1.1/untarred and build from there? Travis
