Introduction to the Xorg Server

The Xorg Server is the backbone of the X Windows system.

Dependencies

Required

• Xorg Fonts

Optional

MesaLib

Configuration Information

Note: If you intend to build with Mesa, you must have the Mesa source directory available when building the Xorg-server.

--with-mesa-source=...:This switch directs the build system to the Mesa source directory. If you wish to build without Mesa, omit this switch.

--with-module-dir=...: Sets the destination for the installed modules.

--with-dri-driver-path=...: The location of the Mesa DRI drivers.

--enable-install-setuid: The Xorg binary must run as the root user. This switch ensures that the binary is installed setuid when make is run by an unprivileged user.

--enable-xgl: Build the xgl server.

--enable-xglx: Build the Xglx xgl module.

--enable-xegl: Build the Xegl xgl module.

--enable-builddocs: Causes documentation to be built.

--disable-dri: Disable building of the DRI extension; required if building without Mesa.

--disable-xprint: Disable building of the Xprint extension and server; required if building without Mesa.

Non-Multilib

Apply the patch to fix the security vulnerability in the xorg-server.

patch -Np1 -i ../xorg-server-1.9.2.901-setuid-2.patch

Correct the Mesa header search path.

sed -i 's@-I$(top_builddir)/include@-I$(top_builddir)/GL/mesa/main@8' \
    GL/glx/Makefile.in &&
sed -i 's@-I$(top_builddir)/include@-I$(top_builddir)/GL/mesa/glapi@7' \
    GL/glx/Makefile.in

Compile the server. Note that you will need to provide the correct path to the Mesa source files on your system if you're building with Mesa. If not building with Mesa, then don't pass the --with-mesa-source switch to the configure script.

./configure $XORG_CONFIG \
    --with-mesa-source='</path/to>/Mesa-7.9' \
    --with-fontdir=$XORG_PREFIX/lib/X11/fonts \
    --with-module-dir=$XORG_PREFIX/lib/X11/modules \
    --with-dri-driver-path=$XORG_PREFIX/lib/X11/modules/dri \
    --enable-install-setuid &&
 make

There is no test suite for the xorg server. Install the server.

make install
