Slackware :: Unable To Use XORG After Compiling 2.6.35 - No Protocol Specified
Aug 4, 2010
I am on my Debian system right now because of issues after compiling Linux 2.6.35, I followed Alien Bob's tutotorial, but obviously I missed something. I added 2.6.35 to my lilo.conf file, I tried to boot to it, but dhcp wasn't working, then I tried a startx and KDE would not load. No problem right, I will just boot my original Slackware Linux kernel.
I booted to the original, DHCP worked great but when I do a startx, I just get a black screen. Here is some of the terminal output.
Code:
No protocol specified
waiting for X server to begin accepting connections.
No protocol specified
[code]....
It's hard to get some of the output because I am looking at the other screen and typing this.

When the power twitches, and X is displayed on the current tty. the display resolution is somehow lost. When the system is rebooted and X restarted, the resolution displayed (and the best offered) is 800x600.My resolution of choice is 1280x1024, and none of the configuration files appear to have been changed.The X resolution is unaffected if another tty was displayed at the time. (I am often working on two or three consoles as well as what X is using)In the past it has been sufficient to comb through the file system and delete all the temporary files and caches that seem to be associated with X. I have never been sure if this was actually any sort of solution to begin with, but in any case it no longer seems to work.

I am building a BLFS (Beyond Linux from Scratch) system. I am using a Slackware style package management system. Currently I am trying to build xorg-server-1.1.1 but whn it come to finding libfreetype.so its looking in my build directory (/tmp/mybuild/pachage-freetype/usr/lib/) and not /usr/lib/. I checked /usu/lib/pkgconfig and found that my freetype2.pc (amongst others) file was pointing to my build dir so I fixed it (along with all the others). but when I try building again I gat the same error. I checked my $PATH and my $PKG_CONFIG_PATH and both are correct.
this is a snip of my terminal output
Code:
(cd .libs && rm -f libosandcommon.la && ln -s ../libosandcommon.la libosandcommon.la)
if gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I../../include -I../../include -I../../include -I../../include -I../../include -I../../include -I../../include -I../../include -

1. What is the difference between files (xorg.conf and xorg.conf-vesa)
2. No matter how hard I try I can't change keyboard layout in xorg.conf-vesa (I change it in file ) but there is no actually anything changing, it starts to get annoying - for example - below goes my xorg.conf-vesa, if I uncomment and set line from

I downloaded Slackware64-current to give it a try on my laptop and all went well as usual. However when trying to connect to another computer from Dolphin via sftp I was informed that sftp is an 'invalid protocol'. I can use ftp, though. Same thing happens with Konqueror. Using Konsole I can successfully start sftp, although that is not exactly what I want or need. For me, this is really a major problem as my office computer can only be accessed at home via secure shell. I need to be able to upload/download files and folders from there and from other machines. I wasn't really aware of how heavily I depend on this until now. Has anyone else run into this problem? If so, is there a fix or a workaround?

i can normally adjust the back light settings of my lap top by pressing fn and the up and down aarows. I am using the default xorg server without using xorgconfig in slackware, and it works perfect so far dispite this slight problem. When i do, do that key combo, (in kde) it does display the the meter of brightness, but i can't move the settings. I believe this may be an x issue, but not sure.

Just wondering, what happens when you have multiple server softwares listening to the same port? will it be able to distinguish which service to use by the protocol information, or is it setting it up for failure?
IE: http and ssh both listening to port 80.

I have a need to recompile mesa. The --enable-32-bit option falls over every header and basic 32 bit lib, and won't compile. But if I try to install 32 bit packages, I could slap a 32 bit binary straight on top of my 64 bit one. What's the accepted way of doing this? I can't seem to find a package in Slackware 13.0

I've installed glibc and downloaded 2.6.33.3 tar ball from kernel.org.
I created a symlink /usr/src/linux -> /drive/linux-2.6.33.3
But there's something missing because when I run
make mrproper
make config
I get errors about not finding headers:
asm/socket.h
It seems like I am missing some other symlink, I've tried creating other links, like /usr/include/asm -> /drive/linux-2.6.33.3/arch/x86/asm

I'm running 13.1 64bit with alienbob's multilib extension and want to add openmotif. I used Eric's Slackbuild from [URL] applying it to openmotif-2.3.3 and succeeded in compiling the 64bit-version.Next I tried to compile in 32bit-mode, following alienbob instructions:
move lib64 to lib in openmotif.Slackbuild
export ARCH=x86_64
. /etc/profile.d/32dev.sh
./openmotif.Slackbuild
linking stops with error-message

Having trouble compiling the regular par2cmdline-0.4, I stumbled upon [URL] modified version of par2cmdline-0.4 with tbb which allows for concurrent processing of files. I have tried compiling this with no luck on my system and was wondering if anyone has had any luck. The ./configure goes through fine, and tbb is detected and used however it craps out just moments after issuing the make command. I have tried both tbb 2.2 and 3.0, but to no avail.

I'm compiling the BlueZ packages on Slackware64-13.0 and bluez.Slackbuild failed to run. I added
Code:
mkdir -p $PKG/lib/udev
immediately before
Code:
cp -a scripts/bluetooth_serial $PKG/lib/udev/bluetooth_serial || exit 1
and now the script runs.I don't know why the /lib/udev directory isn't created earlier in the build process for me, but now it builds cleanly.

I'm trying to compile imlib against libpng 1.4. I am using the slack sources from slackware64 13.1, and a SlackBuild file modified with the extra configure parameter "--with-png=/usr/lib64/libpng.so.14"
The final crashing portion of my output is as follows:

I'm trying to build some boot and kernel images for my WD Mybook world edition, which uses an arm processor on my x86_64 host box. Ultimately i'd like to install slackarm. Lilo doesn't work on arm so you have to compile your own kernel and have the bootloader statically linked to kernel inorder to boot the OS. So i'm using my slackware install to cross compile the boot loaders (u-boot) and kernel image (uImage).
I've successfully compiled the buildroot environment which has generated the arm-linux-* binaries, eg, gcc 3.4.2 for arm.
Code:
These are in a build folder (shortened in text below), which i add to my PATH
Code:
I then move to the directory where i want to build the stage1 boot loader, which is supplied in the GPL code from WD.
Code:
However the build fails with a segfault, which looks to be caused by the incorrect libraries and compiler being used:
Code:
It seems to be using my x86_64 libs and gcc 4.4.4 which is the host compiler not the target.
I've tried setting ARCH=arm but got the same results.
Do i need to export some additional variables or unset some to prevent the host files being used instead of the targets?

I'm trying to install squidGuard-1.4, I have a minimal install. I have installed squid-3.2.0.5 without any problems, but squidGuard is driving me crazy
I can run the ./configure with no problems but when I run make, or make install I keep getting this error:
Code:
make: *** [y.tab.c] Error 141
And that is is all, no more verbosity or anything else.
Error suggests that YACC is missing but bison is present, also db4 (tried with db44 and db3, same story).
Just in case you can see anything I cannot I've attached the config.log

I'm doing a group project using some UML stuff. I tried install graphiz and it installed find but apparently it keeps telling me I'm missing dot when compiling the UML (tells me dot should be at /usr/bin/dot which it is, but it can't find it). I also tried a command "java -jar plantuml.jar -testdot" (which was suggested where the UML should have been) and the jar file couldn't be found.

I am in need of some more clear information about compiling and installing various applications in Slackware. I mean, i am not that new in Linux world, but i am not used to having to check for dependencies on my own and making Slackware packages myself. Things i would like to know more about and would be these:
a) is there some magical way you use to find out what dependencies a package has? I would appreciate as much information in this field as much as i can get. As now if i download source of some application i have completely no idea about what it needs from my system to function properly or where to look for this information. I think there should be more "correct way" than goggling for it...
b) I know about nice site SlackBuilds.org that it is, but lets say i want to install application A, and there is written, that application A requires application B, which requires application C, and this one needs application D. So now i have to spend good half of a day getting and compiling dependencies for one application, i mean common there has to be a quicker way to do this... at least some tool that would let me build some kind of ques that would be processed automatically or some kind of trick... So if you know some focuses under your sleeve, then please oh please do share
c) I would also like to know more about optimizing Slackware for boot time and general performance (but it's not that important, there are a lot of walls of text about this in Google world).

I haven't used slackware for many years. There used to be a sticky thread with a great kernel compiling guide for slackware. It feels somewhat unnatural to me to use slackware without a shiny new kernel. Does that guide still exist? I'm working from memory right now.

I want to compile a kernel to add a few options that are not enabled in the huge-smp-2.6.29.6 that comes with slackware. specifically, i want to add TASK_DELAY_ACCT and TASK_IO_ACCOUNTING so that I can use iotop. I just want to add those 2 options to the new kernel, everything else I'd like to keep the way it is as the system has been running just fine. Will running 'make menuconfig' in /usr/src/linux default to the options that are used in the stock kernel?

I am currently having an issue installing the FGLRX driver in slackware 13.1. I use a customer kernel due to buggy acpi on my toshiba laptop. The steps i took to compile my kernel are as followed. hu
make mrproper in /usr/src/linux directory
patch /usr/src/linux directory
copy kernel config from /boot directory
make menguconfig and load config
the make all
make modules install
i have also tried make install as well
then i mopy system.map the kernel file and config file into /boot directory
edit lilo
reboot ... everything works fine acpi works properly like before.. now the problem comes.. I try to install the fglrx drivers and i get the error message
Code:
Error:
kernel includes at /lib/modules/2.6.33.4-smp/build/include do not match current kernel.
they are versioned as ""
instead of "2.6.33.4-smp".
you might need to adjust your symlinks:
- /usr/include
- /usr/src/linux
ERROR: I don't have make module
Am I doing something wrong setting up my kernel. Issue on my gentoo box I have.
