[Buildroot] tinyx in buildroot

[Buildroot] tinyx in buildroot

[saravanan]

hi,

    i had  cross compiled buildroot with tinyX support for my MIPS developement board.now i need a windows manager to be ported. i tried compiling matchbox with tinyX,but i was not successfull. the following is the error i got:

/home/linuxau1200/oldbuildroot/buildingnew/buildroot/build_mipsel/xc-011010/exports/lib  -lX11 -lXext      -L/usr/local/lib -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lXcursor -lXrender -lX11

linux:/home/linuxau1200/matchbox/matchbox-window-manager-1.2 #                 .

it links to the libXcursor library of the host system(x86 processor). i searched in the tinyX compiled package and could not find any library like this.

can anyone provide me any solutions or suggestions for this ?

thanks in advance,

saravanan.

AFAIK, all x11/xorg/tinyX stuff is very experimental - and do not
compile without hand-work tweaks.

Best regards,
