Hi:

I installed Linux 99pl12 successfully and configured
X also ( though I spent 6 or 7 hours finding the correct
Xconfig setup.

I've setting up my system and during one compiling I got
a few error messages. My program is including errno.h and
this includes linux/errno.h; the problem is that this last
file doesnt exist, as well as a few others.

Does anybody know where these files are ? For sure, I didnt
install a few of the packages: one of them was lx99pl12 or
something like ( those are the kernel sources ). Are the files
there ? Its really a pain to use 2.5Mb just to get those files,
though....

Another matter: I know that Metrolink has Motif for Linux. Is
Motif available in source format for you to compile ? There was
a message from somenone on this group stating that he was trying
to do this. How did he get those sources ? FTP ? I thought that
Motif sources were not public domain....

Thanks for any help. For anyone interested, I contributed a
portuguese keymap ( pt.map ) posted on the admin group. Get it
there if you need it.


C U!

Fun, isn't it? :) Has anyone managed to get more than 704x480 out of a Video 7
card? (using the generic driver)

That's where they are I'm afraid - but you only need the 2.5 megs temporarily.
Untar the package in /usr/src, then do

ln -sf /usr/src/linux/include/linux /usr/include/linux
ln -sf /usr/src/linux/include/asm /usr/include/asm

then you can delete all the junk in /usr/src/linux _except_ for
/usr/src/linux/include.
