The problem was that you have to build "drm" *before* you build x. What I
did was I followed http://wiki.x.org/wiki/ModularDevelopersGuide with a look
at http://www.intellinuxgraphics.org/install.html for guidance. I used
git-clone to download the Mesa and drm sources to the same /tmp/src where X
suggest you put its modular tree before building. Then I did the following
to build libdrm:
$ cd /tmp/src/drm
$ ./configure --prefix=/tmp/modular
$ make
$ make install
This will put libdrm.so (.so.1, .so.2 and .so.2.3.0) in the /tmp/modular/lib
directory. Once that is done, then X should build with:
$ cd /tmp/src
$ PATH=/tmp/modular/bin:$PATH ./util/modular/build.sh -m /tmp/{path to
Mesa} -n -D /tmp/modular > build.log 2>&1
(disregard the "-m /tmp/{path to Mesa}" if you are not building Mesa)
Keep the faith, it was a pain to get all the pieces of the puzzle in the
right place, but the results were well worth it.
