[comp.sys.hp] Help for making X11R4 on HP300 series

harperb@cps3xx.egr.msu.edu (Brett Harper) (05/02/90)

Hi,

  Could somebody please send me any modifications that they had to make
to the X11R4 distribution in order to 'make' it on the 300 series.  Like
did you use cc or gcc?  What files did you use from HP, or is everything you
need on the X11R4 distribution (like to X0screens file) ? Any other specifics
that you can think of.  I just can't get it to execute properly after compiling
it!

Any help would be much appreciated,

Thanks,

To save some hassle, I have placed a pair of compressed tar files
on a machine we have connected with the Internet.  The tar files contain
compiled forms of many of the libraries that MIT is supplying
as part of the MIT X11 Release 4, including libXaw.a and libXmu.a.

People with access to the Internet can get these via:

ftp hpcvaaz.cv.hp.com             (15.255.72.15)
Name: ftp
Password: ftp

ftp> cd pub/MitX11R4
ftp> get README -
ftp> binary
ftp> get libs.s300.Z             ( or libs.s800.Z for Series 800 machines)
ftp> quit

to unpack:

$ zcat libs.s300.Z | tar xvf -
