2. Reconfiguring the server (source distribution)

To build a different set of servers or servers with a different set of drivers installed:

  1. Make sure the source for any new drivers is in the correct place (e.g., driver source for the SVGA server should be in a subdirectory of xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/vga256/drivers).
  2. Change the settings of the server defines in host.def to specify which servers you wish to build. Also, change the driver lists to suit your needs.
  3. From xc/programs/Xserver, run:
    	make Makefile
    	make Makefiles
    	make depend
    	make
