- in this document, to
- see if there are any system requirements you have to make for the
- server to operate correctly.
-</enum>
+Before you can either compile or execute a binary distribution of
+XFree86, the following conditions must be met:
+<itemize>
+ <item>Ensure that you are running Release 5.0.4 or later. This is required
+ because OSS646 is only supported on those platforms. There are no plans
+ to support XFree86 on earlier releases of OpenServer.
+ <item>Ensure that OSS646, the ``Execution Environment Update'' package is
+ installed, if appropriate. Check the release notes for that update
+ to see whether or not your current operating system requires this
+ update. This supplement will be available to the public in February
+ 2003.
+ <item>Ensure that OSS631, the "Graphics, Web and X11 Libraries" package
+ is installed. This ships standard with release 5.0.7 and later, and
+ is only required for 5.0.[456] users. This package will be updated fairly
+ frequently, and it us always suggested you have the latest possible
+ version installed. At some point in the future it may even update the
+ libraries in 5.0.7, so it is worth checking the release notes for this
+ supplement.
+ <item>To compile XFree86, you must use the SCO-supported version of
+ the GNU C Compiler. It is possible that Skunkware versions of the
+ compiler will work too, but this has not been tested. The ``GNU
+ Development System'' is available for all releases from (and including)
+ SCO OpenServer Release 5.0.5. It is provided with the operating system
+ in all versions from Release 5.0.7, although you need to run ``custom''
+ to install it from the media. You can always download the latest
+ latest version of the GNU Development System from the <url
+ name="SCO Web site" url="http://www.sco.com">.
+ <item>If you are not using OSR 5.0.7 or later, you need to get an updated
+ console driver. See <url url="http://www.sco.com"> for details on
+ OpenServer supplements. If you can't or don't want to upgrade your
+ console driver, XFree86 will still compile, but you may run into
+ problems with some cards such as the Riva TNT and ATI Rage cards.
+ The problem with the console driver in 5.0.6A and earlier is that
+ when the X server sets graphics mode, the driver does not set a
+ status bit, so any text that is sent directly to <tt>/dev/console</tt>,
+ such as kernel warning or notice messages when you access tape drives
+ or NFS notices, will be sent to the console video memory. This just
+ happens to be slap bang in the middle of palette data for the Riva
+ TNT, so you get color map corruption. The updated console driver
+ also has an improved mechanism for allocating video memory that
+ XFree86 detects at compile time, and it will use it if it exists.
+ It is STRONGLY recommended that you get the console driver update.
-<sect>Source Distribution<p>
+</itemize>
-The SCO port comes as part of the standard XFree86 distribution. Consult
-the XFree86 <tt>README</tt> for more information on the location of sources.
+<sect>Compiling XFree86<p>
-Please note that as of XFree86 3.2, Only SCO Open Server Release 5 and
-onwards are supported. If you are using a previous version of SCO UNIX
-and you want to use XFree86, use the 3.1 series, or be prepared for build
-failures.
+Using the GNU Development System, compiling XFree86 should be fairly
+straightforward. Before attempting to compile the system though, you
+should make sure that you have met all of the requirements above.
+To actually start the compilation, perform the following steps:
-For people who want and need to look around the source, there
-are now two files in ``<tt>xc/config/cf</tt>''. Firstly, ``<tt>sco.cf</tt>'' is
-the old original SCO configuration file, and ``<tt>sco5.cf</tt>'', which is
-the currently used configuration file.
+<itemize>
+ <item>Copy the unmodified <tt>xf86site.def</tt> in <tt>xc/config/cf</tt>
+ to <tt>host.def</tt>. Edit <tt>host.def</tt> and make any changes you
+ think you need. The most useful options to change are <tt>HasTcl</tt>,
+ <tt>HasTk</tt>, <tt>HasXdmAuth</tt> if you have the file
+ <tt>WrapHelp.c</tt> and <tt>GccWarningOptions</tt>. Due to the nature
+ of OpenServer's header files, the default options for this last setting
+ are a bit aggressive, and I recommend you set this option to
+ <tt>-Wpointer-arith</tt>.
+
+ <item>Make sure that the official version of the GNU Development System
+ is first in your <tt>PATH</tt>. The official version lives in
+ <tt>/usr/gnu/bin</tt>, and the Skunkware version (if any) lives in
+ <tt>/usr/local/bin</tt>. You must ensure that <tt>/usr/gnu/bin</tt>
+ appears first in your <tt>PATH</tt>.
+
+ <item>Go to the top level of the source tree and execute the command
+ <tt>CC=gcc make World BOOTSTRAPCFLAGS=-DSCO5 2&gt;&amp;1 | tee world.log</tt>.
+ This will do a full build, and send all of the build results to the
+ file <tt>world.log</tt>.
+
+ <item>If the build succeeded, install the new server by executing the
+ command <tt>make install 2&gt;&amp;1 | tee install.log</tt> as root.
+ This will send the install results to the file <tt>install.log</tt>.
+
+ <item>If you want to install the manual pages, execute the command
+ <tt>make install.man 2&gt;&amp;1 | tee -a install.log</tt> as root.

<sect>Using SCO binaries/servers.<p>
XFree86 will accept connections from SCO binaries (R3 upwards) and the

-use XF86Setup you will have to compile Tcl and Tk yourself. Both are
-supported well on SCO Open Server 5. Tcl 7.6 and Tk 4.2 are available

-<tag/Causes:/
-<quote>
- There can be any number of causes why the server doesn't start.
- The first step is to find out what the server has to say. To do
- this we have to catch the error output of the server into a file.
- This output contains a log of what the server is finding/doing as
- it starts up. To get this output run:
- <verb>
- startx 2> /tmp/errs
- </verb>
- The output of the server will now be in "/tmp/errs". You should
- look through this output for possible problems, and then check
- here in this document for any references to the problems you are
- seeing.

-<tag/Problem:/
-<quote>
- The server starts up, the screen goes blank, and I never see
- anything else. It appears that my machine has hung.
-</quote>
-<tag/Causes:/
-<quote>
- Again this can have many causes. Most likely your XF86Config is
- wrong. You should be able to kill the server by typing
- Ctrl-Alt-BackSpace, if it is still running. If this does not
- restore your display then you may have to drive your system blind.
- Always keep another login running at the shell prompt so that you
- may switch to that screen and run commands even if you cannot see
- anything on the screen. Try these things, usually in the order
- given:
- <itemize>
- <item>log out of the login where you started ``X'' and then
- change consoles. This will cause the SCO screen
- switching code to try to reset the card.
- <item>run ``vidi v80x25'', this command will also try to set
- your card into a viewable mode.
- <item>shutdown the machine cleanly with ``shutdown'' and try
- again.
- </itemize>
- When first trying to get XFree86 to run, be sure to use a simple
- setup. Get 640x480 working first then move on to higher
- resolutions. Always trap the output of the server as shown earlier.
- Once you have the valid clocks for your video card (as provided
- in the server output), hard code them into your XF86Config as
- this will take some strain off your monitor during XFree86
- startup where it usually probes the various clock frequencies.
- Getting the ``X'' screen to appear can be a painfully slow task.
- Be patient and read as much of the doco as you can handle. You
- will get it to work.

-</tt></quote>
-<tag/Causes:/

- All SCO unix installations appear to have the Streams pseudo tty driver
- installed, but not all the devices are present.<p>
-<enum>
-<item>there should be a <tt>/etc/conf/pack.d/sp</tt> directory,
-<item><tt>/etc/conf/sdevice.d/sp</tt> should have a '<tt>Y</tt>' in it.
-<item>You need a file in <tt>/etc/conf/node.d</tt>
- which contains something like:
-<verb>
- clone spx c sp
- sp X0S c 127
- sp X0R c 126
- sp X1S c 125
- sp X1R c 124
- sp X2S c 123
- sp X2R c 122
- sp X3S c 121
- sp X3R c 120
- sp X4S c 119
- sp X4R c 118
- sp X5S c 117
- sp X5R c 116
- sp X6S c 115
- sp X6R c 114
- sp X7S c 113
- sp X7R c 112
-</verb>
-</enum>
- if you don't have something like this (maybe called "Xsco") then create
- one and that should fix your problem. As far as I can tell the streams
- pseudo tty driver should be there.<p>
- The simplest way to get the devices if you had to create this file is
- to rebuild the kernel and the environment. If you don't want to do this
- then:
-<verb>
- touch /etc/.new_unix
- cd /etc/conf/bin
- ./idmkenv
- </verb>
- and try it out.
