Re: Xorg, XFree on netbsd/alpha

[Andrius V <vezhlys%gmail.com@localhost>]

I was able to build modular-xorg some time ago however on startx
netbsd was crashing immediately. So Xorg was unusable  for me in the
end. You need to add -lalpha in Makefile if you want to build Xorg at
all. About these errors you probably need to look how those functions
are defined. Also there were some diffs in the groups from some other
person who managed to build and run it too
(http://old.nabble.com/X.org-1.3.0-server-on-NetBSD-alpha-td13057190.html).
It can be as reference point too.
