Contents of README:README: ====== This is Ken Nakata's (kenn@netbsd.org) "One Size Fits All" color Xserver for mac68k, integrated with the standard build system and slightly updated for NetBSD 1.6 (ELF). It should build fine on newer systems, though the "Imakefile" patch may not apply cleanly. After ungzipping and unpacking the shar file, and applying the "Imakefile" and "host.def" patches (by hand, if necessary), "make build" under "/usr/xsrc" will build both the old B&W and the new server and make the "X" symlink point to the new one. Ken's original, which was intended to completely replace the Xserver under the NetBSD 1.3.2 build system, is in the "Original" directory. The "Xmac68k_color.bz2" file contains a binary built against these sources for NetBSD-1.6. It should also work on NetBSD-1.6.1, 1.6.2 (and NetBSD-2.0, with the proper emulation setup and 1.6.1 shared libraries, although it's recommended to rebuild from source). Known problems with this Xserver: ================================ * Doesn't work on some PowerBooks. * Doesn't work at all in DirectColor. Doesn't even fail gracefully! * Lies about which depths it supports. "xdpyinfo" returns every conceivable depth -- even ones it can never support. It should only report the current depth, since there's no mode switching, i.e., it only supports the resolution that Mac OS was booted into when the NetBSD Booter invoked the kernel. |
