[FreeNX-kNX] ERROR - Compile NXLIBS 1.4 to SUSE PowerPC

[Vishnu.Mohan at tsysprepaid.com]

Adriano,

For some reason the autoconf scripts fail to turn on Postition Independent 
Code generation on the POWER platform

You need to edit the toplevel Makefile and add the -fPIC flag to CXXFLAGS 
and CCFLAGS so that they look like this

CXXFLAGS = -O3 -fPIC -I../nx-X11/exports/include -Wno-deprecated 
-DIN_ADDR_T=
in_addr_t -DVERSION=\"1.5.0\" -I/usr/X11R6/include -DPACKAGE_NAME=\"\" 
-DPACKAG
E_TARNAME=\"\" -DPACKAGE_VERSION=\"\" -DPACKAGE_STRING=\"\" 
-DPACKAGE_BUGREPORT=
\"\" \
-Wall -Wpointer-arith
CCFLAGS = -fPIC -I/usr/X11R6/include -DPACKAGE_NAME=\"\" 
-DPACKAGE_TARNAME=
\"\" -DPACKAGE_VERSION=\"\" -DPACKAGE_STRING=\"\" -DPACKAGE_BUGREPORT=\"\" 
\
-Wall -Wpointer-arith
Likewise if you  are also trying to compile ncompext you will have to pass 
the -fPIC option to CXXFLAGS again as such

CXXFLAGS = -O3 -fPIC -DVERSION=\"1.5.0\" -I/usr/X11R6/include 
-DPACKAGE_NAME=\"\" -DPACKAGE_TARNAME=\"\" -DPACKAGE_VERSION=\"\" 
-DPACKAGE_STRING=\"\" -DPACKAGE_BUGREPORT=\"\" -D__USE_MALLOC \
-Wall -Wpointer-arith -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes \
-Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs 
I recently managed to port the NoMachine OSS Components to the POWER 
platform, more specifically an IBM OpenPower 720 running Suse and an IBM 
JS20 running Gentoo/PPC64. The performance on the OpenPower is just 
fantastic!
Hope this helps,
Vishnu.
