I want to report sucessfull install of X.org on my PowerBook5,2:
Stolen From Ubuntu.
- Caught sources xorg, render and xrender from
http://archive/ubuntu/pool/main
- debuild and installed the binaries
- Caught sources xcompmgr and transset from
http://archive/ubuntu/pool/universe
- debuild and installed the binaries.
Thanks for drawing my attention to this. Why didn't you just install the
binaries though? :)
deb http://<mirror>/ubuntu hoary main multiverse restricted universe
I also have
Package: *
Pin: release a=experimental
Pin-Priority: 102
Package: *
Pin: release o=Ubuntu

in /etc/apt/preferences to prevent Ubuntu from taking over my system. ;)
Running xcompmgr (shadows) with transset (real translucency) eates
the cpu :-(
Transset is running well if RenderAcces could be enabled in the Device
section. This feature isn't avilable to Radeons 9[5-8]00 yet :(
Translucent windows would still be mostly unusable even with that due to
shortcomings in XAA. What really keeps me from using Composite at this
point though is that it tends to crash the X server here even without a
compositing manager running and that it's not integrated with GLX yet.
