That's no fun, what if you want
to follow with git.

I guess the best solution is to purchase
hardware that requires no proprietary mudules,
only all kernel built-in modules.

Anyways I'm glad the xserver is able to start.
Now I need to see why the xserver is not seeing
libselinux in /lib64 while its compiling, before I decide
to stay or downgrade.
