Hi Friends, I am having an ARM target(S3C2440A)with TFT LCD. Now currently I am running 2.4 kernel on this target and we developed the LCD drivers also and able to disply some images on the LCD at the time of Linux booting. Now my main intention is to run Xwindows(X11R6 protocol). Can anybody guide how can i build Xwindows to run on ARM target. I want detailed steps for this. Regards Kris

This allows you to run both the linux console and the Xfb X server on your hardware with no additional work.
