Bad habit, replying to your own e-mails but... I downloaded
dri-snapshot-current.tar.gz, unpacked it ok, made a build tree ok and
ran make World >& World.LOG, as TFM suggested. Although the make seemed
to run ok, there were errors reported in the log and no mga.o in
~/dri/build/xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/os-support/linux/drm
The first error in the log was:-
make[4]: *** [GLwDrawA.o] Error 1
I'm not a developer and haven't done any programming for years, but
things seem to go pear shaped near the start of the compilation for
GLwDraw - from the log:
making all in lib/GLw...

Are those parse errors critical?
Can anyone give me a clue as to what is wrong and what I should do about
it, as I'm not sure where to go from here.
