The solution is pretty simple: ==================================== Never ever include -v or --verbose in CFLAGS ==================================== Why? Because otherwise there will be some output to stdout during the -fPIC test compile executed from configure, and that output causes the build system to erroneously assume that -fPIC does not work. Hence xorg parts that normally would be build with -fPIC will be built without that flag. The resulting Xorg server will fail to start with the normal configuration setup as lazy resolution is assumed but impossible. It will work perfectly if you add a suitable Section "Module" that loads all necessary modules in the right order. I think the test for "-fPIC" support is fundamentally broken and should be fixed. Or would it be better to check for -v and --verbose in CFLAGS? cu, Knut
