Hi,
Sorry if this is an FAQ (it's not in the FAQ's and I couldn't find it
in the mail archives)...
Where can I get the aperture driver so that I don't need to have
"options INSECURE" in my kernel in order to run X?
I looked all over ftp.netbsd.org and ftp.xfree86.org (including
downloading every file in the XFree86 3.3 binary distribution and
looking grovelling through them all..
Every bit of documentation I found on this topic simply said to take
the ap.o file and add it to the LKM configuration, but I don't have
the file or even the directory it's supposedly in.
I'd prefer source code to build the driver myself, unless it requires
a full XFree source tree to do so.
In case it matters, I'm running NetBSD 1.2G, supped about a week ago.
Oh yeah, and I'm running XFree86 3.3 at the moment, not 3.3.1, though
I plan to upgrade soon.
TIA,
entropy
