How to Create the X11R5 Distribution
====================================
This is a subset of the complete X11R5 binary distribution to be used
with Open Desktop 1.1, Open Desktop 2.0 and Xsight 4.1. This will
update all the drivers and use the current X11R4 fonts you already
have in place on your system.
Warning: You must _NOT_ remove your current ODT or Xsight distribution
in order for this to work. If you do not already have Open Desktop or
Xsight, this is _NOT_ a complete product distribution and will not
work as a standalone product.
To make the floppy (3.5" only) distribution, you should do the following:
[1] download all the floppies from the bbs
[2] uncompress each one of the files
uncompress DISK1.Z
uncompress DISK2.Z
uncompress DISK3.Z
(If you are a ODT 1.1 or Xsight 2.2 user, you will have
to download the new versions of compress and uncompress
from the bulletin board. These have LZH compression.)
[3] format 3 new floppies
[4] create the distribution floppies
insert the first floppy and type:
dd if=DISK1 of=/dev/rfd0135ds18 bs=20k
insert the 2nd floppy and type:
dd if=DISK2 of=/dev/rfd0135ds18 bs=20k
insert the 3rd floppy and type:
dd if=DISK3 of=/dev/rfd0135ds18 bs=20k
[5] In single user mode, run custom and configure your
graphics adapter.
[6] Apply the following fixup:
#!/bin/sh
cd /usr/bin/X11
mv X X.old
ln Xsco X
cd /usr/lib/X11/fonts
mkdir Speedo
chmod 755 Speedo
mkdir Type1
chmod 755 Type1
cd Speedo
echo "0\n" > fonts.dir
chmod 444 fonts.dir
cd ../Type1
echo "0\n" > fonts.dir
chmod 444 fonts.dir
# additional fixups, added 6/7/93
cd /usr/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi
rm helvB14.pcf
mkfontdir
echo "Fixes are complete. You should now be able to start up the server."
