Re: Error when compiling Openchrome in Ubuntu

Hi,
i am running Dapper Drake f3 and have other problems when compiling the openchrome driver against a X.org7 modular tree (CVS HEAD). i have all recommended tolls for the xorg tree installed. 
maybe my x tree does not compile enough anyway? well, it quits after an hour compilation (in  xorg/xserver/xorg/hw/xfree86/int10) so i thing there was enough skeleton produced, right?

now, my problem with opencrome shows up when doing the make.

(this kind of error is generated for some more screens...)

anyway, i bet it is possible to do so: as this person tells:
http://wiki.openchrome.org/pipermail/openchrome-users/2005-November/000179.html

so, how do i do this?

running my X with 60Hz vesa is painfull, unichrome does not support my pciid (ASRock board 775VM800 with VIA P4M800 chipset)

i was able to try the openchrome driver with a monolithic tree (6.*) and it was working. so i want it to compile against the 7.0 too.

bye
