nanogui: Thread: libXext.so

Hi,

I built nxlib and have the libX11.so.6.2 libnx11.a.

While building fltk, there's a error which reports that libXext.so is 
required ( cannot find -lXext). What am I missing here? Do I really 
require libXext?

Thanks,
Terence

No. Just remove all the -lXext in the FLTK makefiles.
It works just fine. I do

perl -p -i -e 's/-lXext //' $(FLTK_DIR)/configure*

That'll work just fine.  I thought we built libXext as a
null library, so we didn't have to go through this?

No. Well not when I started with FLTK on nano-X which is almost 18 month
ago now.

Would be a good idea though.

And maybe you should even integrate the nxlib stuff into the nano-X!

Looks like loads of people need the X11 api.
