I did this some years back... Is it possible to build X using your
package manager and install that?<br>
<br>
Other than that, you will have to sort out all of the various paths
by hand.<br>
<br>
It looks like you have a path conflict where the compiled version is
possibly trying to use some files from your package manager.<br>
<br>
Do you have a X log file?<br>

<div>I'm trying to use Xephyr to make a multiseat
setup. To do this, I need evdev support and hardware
acceleration for graphics. I've read that I have to
compile Xephyer from source to do that. I have looked
at several examples like this: <a
moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://www.amxl.com/c/single-graphics-card-multi-seat-ubuntu-linux"
target="_blank">http://www.amxl.com/c/single-graphics-card-multi-seat-ubuntu-linux</a><br>
<br>
</div>
I downloaded the source from <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://www.x.org/releases/X11R7.7/src/xserver/"
target="_blank">http://www.x.org/releases/X11R7.7/src/xserver/</a><br>
<br>
</div>
I ran<br>
<br>
<div style="margin-left:40px">./configure --enable-kdrive
--enable-xephyr --enable-xfake --enable-xfbdev
--enable-kdrive-kbd --enable-kdrive-mouse
--enable-kdrive-evdev --enable-glx-tls
<br>
<br>
make <br>
<br>
sudo make install<br>
</div>
</div>
<br>
</div>
No errors so far. I now have two versions of X and Xephyr.
From the repos in /usr/bin/, and from this build in
/usr/local/bin/<br>
<br>

<div>The version I built breaks:<br>

<div>I found the xkb files in /var/lib/xkb but I have no
idea where Xephyer expects to see them. Other resources
on the Internet have suggested /usr/lib/X11/xkb/compiled/
and /usr/lib/X11/xkb/<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>But, the built version is not doing any "Initializing
built-in extension" so I suspect there's much more that is
broken.<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>The compiled X does not start either, claiming there is
no nvidia module. It uses the same xorg.conf that the
repo X uses, and the repo X obviously works fine.<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>Any ideas?<br>
<br>
