[Qemu-devel] compiling qemu 0.5.3

[Ryan Freeman]

hi,
i've been relentlessly trying to compile the latest version of qemu and
i keep having the same problem. here are the details of where the
compilation halts:

make[1]: Entering directory `/home/ryan/src/qemu-0.5.3/i386'
gcc  -static -Wl,-T,/home/ryan/src/qemu-0.5.3/i386-vl.ld  -o qemu-fast
vl.o osdep.o block.o monitor.o ide.o ne2000.o pckbd.o vga.o sb16.o dma.o
oss.o fdc.o mc146818rtc.o serial.o i8259.o i8254.o pc.o gdbstub.o sdl.o
libqemu.a  -lm -L/usr/lib -Wl,-rpath,/usr/lib -lSDL -lpthread -lm -ldl
-L/usr/X11R6/lib -lX11 -lXext -lutil
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lX11
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [qemu-fast] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/ryan/src/qemu-0.5.3/i386'
make: *** [all] Error 1
ryan@ryan:~/src/qemu-0.5.3$

i've tried cvs as well and it gives me the same error. what i don't
understand is how it can't find -lX11 when the include is _right there_.
/usr/bin/ld -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lX11 works as it should, so why can't it
work on that one line when trying to compile it?! anyway, my specs are
as follows:

arch linux -current
linux 2.6.5
gcc (GCC) 3.3.3

any help would really be appreciated :). the reason i'm trying to
compile the latest instead of using the 0.5.2 binaries is that although
the 0.5.2 binaries work to a degree (the linux test works, i can boot
the demo freedos and netbsd images fine), i can't load from a floppy or
cdrom. i can't load from a floppy image or a cdrom image, either. kinda
baffled at that too. everywhere else it seems that people have no
trouble at all getting it to work :/ the error i get for that is

ryan@ryan:~/src/qemu-0.5.3$ qemu -cdrom /dev/cdroms/cdrom1
warning: could not open /dev/net/tun: no virtual network emulation
BIOS panic at rombios.c, line 1558

sigh. thanks ahead of time, and sorry i'm not subscribed to the list but
i can't connect to the mail.nongnu.org servers to get the subscribe info
:/

use "gcc -v -static..." to see in more detail what happens.

The latest SDL libs are broken.

If you only need the PC emulator,
try like explained in the FAQ
http://fabrice.bellard.free.fr/qemu/faq.html:
./configure --target-list=i386-softmmu

Alternatively, if you need all Qemu binaries,
you can run ./configure and add "-lgpm"
in the sdl-config --static-libs line
of your config-host.mak file.

Cheers,
Jean-Michel

I also tracked the SDL breakages in some of my machines to XFree86 update from 
redhat (4.3.0-33). If you have this version, then upgrade to 4.3.0-55

Thanks,
Hetz
