Hi

i get this error:

Hi legout,
I`m using Xorg-7.0, compiled by myself with Introductions from here:
linuxfromscratch.org/~dj/blf … xorg7.html
fvwm-2.5.16 with the trans-patch is compiling and working clean.

Maybe you take a look at your libx11-File or something like this.

The LFS-Page with Introduction is a little bit buggy (very unstable) .

I had to change some lines in the build-scripts and a few other things.

What Distro are you using?

Im sorry that I cant help more but maybe you find answeres on that page.

Good luck & Greetings

Hi Legout,

Are you still using Arch?

I have a PKGBUILD which works if you’re interested.

Rob

Reinstall libx11, it provides that Xlib.h file.

5

Yes i´m stilling using Arch Linux.

Maybe u can post the PKGBUILD here. I also try stones advice

Hi Legout,

Here it is:

make || return 1
make DESTDIR=$startdir/pkg install

}[/code]

The “export PKGCONFIG …” line should be one line, but I can’t edit the post to make it so.

If you enable bidi, I think you should comment out the sed line. Not sure since I don’t use it.

The fvwm-2.5.16-translucency.diff is actually Gramphos’ 2.5.15 translucency patch which I renamed. It works well, mousewheel scrolling with translucency on the menus!

I use startx, so I don’t need a /etc/X11/sessions/fvwm-trans.desktop file, but for my wife who uses FVWM and GDM on her laptop, I just copied the file from fvwm-devel and renamed it.

I hope this sorts your problem out.

Rob
