<br>I need to compile a very narrow subset of Xorg to use in a diskless X<br>terminal: all I need is basically a framebuffer driver, minimal subset<br>of fonts, just few keyboard layouts, etc. I need all this built as a<br>
directories' subtree to copy over to the X-terminal's init ramdisk<br>prototype file tree. Minimal size on disk is the goal: for example, du<br>-bc on xkb subtree results in ~2.4M of files; I definitely do not<br>
need all this.<br><br>Is this possible to do with modular build? Best of all, if there is a<br>menuconfig-style selection tool, but any editable build config would<br>be OK.<br><br>Perhaps there may be some toolsets for embedded devices, can anybody
