| d716e453 | 2 | Welcome to wxWidgets/X11 |
| 1cf13934 | 3 | |
| d716e453 JS |
4 | You have downloaded the X11 port of the wxWidgets GUI library. |
| 5 | This runs on X11 with no Motif, Xt, GTK+ or any other standard | |
| 6 | widget set -- instead it uses the wxUniversal widgets. The | |
| 7 | intention is to have it run on NanoX as well as desktop X11. | |
| 1cf13934 | 8 | |
| fc2171bd | 9 | More information about the wxWidgets project as a whole |
| 1cf13934 JS |

| 14 | Information on how to install can be found in the file | |
| 15 | install.txt, but if you cannot wait, this should work on | |
| 16 | many systems: | |
| 17 | ||
| b55a176b | 18 | ./configure --with-x11 --disable-shared --enable-log --enable-debug -without-odbc --enable-debug_cntxt |
| ea596687 | 19 | |
| 1cf13934 JS |
20 | make |
| 21 | su <type root password> | |
| 22 | make install | |
| 23 | ldconfig | |
| 24 | exit | |
| 25 | ||
| 26 | When you run into problems, please read the install.txt and | |
| 27 | follow those instructions. If you still don't have any success, | |
| 28 | please send a bug report to one of our mailing lists (see | |
| fc2171bd | 29 | the wxWidgets homepage) INCLUDING A DESCRIPTION OF YOUR SYSTEM AND |
| b55a176b JS |
30 | YOUR PROBLEM, SUCH AS YOUR VERSION OF X, WHAT DISTRIBUTION YOU USE |
| 31 | AND WHAT ERROR WAS REPORTED. Alternatively, you may also use the bug | |
| fc2171bd | 32 | reporting system linked from the wxWidgets web page. |

33 | |
| 34 | The library produced by the install process will be called | |
| 868741e9 JS |
35 | libwx_x11univ[d].a (static) and libwx_x11univ[d]-2.3.so.0.0.0 |
| 36 | (shared) so that once a binary incompatible version of | |
| fc2171bd | 37 | wxWidgets/X11 comes out we'll augment the library version number |
| 868741e9 | 38 | to avoid linking problems. |
| 1cf13934 JS |
