nexuiz fails to build with xf86vidmodeproto 2.3

Hi,

nexuiz-2.5.2 fails to build with xf86vidmodeproto 2.3. In 2.3, xf86vmode.h was renamed to xf86vm.h.

xf86vm.h does not contain the function definitions. So that won't work.

Please tell us where they are now, e.g. by running the command

grep -r XF86VidModeSwitchToMode /usr/include

and posting its output here. You might need to install the development files of libXxf86vm first.

ok I've figured it out. If you are using xf86vidmodeproto-2.3, libXxf86vm-1.1.0 is required. The header file has moved there. compiles fine now. leave it up to you guys to handle the dependency.

So you're saying nothing has happened to the header functionality, it just got moved to a different development package.

correct, to be specific - for xf86vidmodeproto >= 2.2.99.1 requires libXxf86vm >= 1.0.99.1.
