As mentioned at the start of section 9, developers may want to simply run the X server without installing it. This can save some time and allow you to keep a number of X servers available for testing.
As described in the preceding section, you'll need to create a
configuration file for the new server.
Put the XF86Config file in your
~/DRI-CVS/build/xc/programs/Xserver directory.
Be sure the ModulePath option in your XF86Config file
is set correctly.
A simple shell script can be used to start the X server. Here's an example.
	   #!/bin/sh
	   export DISPLAY=:0
	   ./XFree86 -xf86config XF86Config & \
	   sleep 2
	   fvwm2 &
	   xset b off
	   xmodmap -e "clear mod4"
	   xsetroot -solid "#00306f"
	   xterm -geometry 80x40+0+0
        
You might name this script start-dri.
Put it in your ~/DRI-CVS/build/xc/programs/Xserver
directory.
To test the server run the script:
             cd ~/DRI-CVS/build/xc/programs/Xserver
             ./start-dri
          
For debugging, you may also want to capture the log messages
printed by the server in a file.
If you're using the C-shell:
             ./start-dri >& log
