Okay, I got a lot further this time. Instead of sudo apt-get build-dep xorg-server
I used sudo apt-get build-dep xorg-server-lts-utopic That installed a bunch of additional packages. When I executed the "sudo fakeroot debian/rules binary" command it ran for a few minutes, spit out thousands of lines of output, and appeared to compile dozens or hundreds of modules. However it got to a point where it failed with the following messages: dh_shlibdeps sed -i 's/libgl1-mesa-glx /libgl1-mesa-glx-lts-utopic /' -i debian/xserver-xorg-core-lts-utopic.substvars sed: can't read debian/xserver-xorg-core-lts-utopic.substvars: No such file or directory make[1]: *** [binary-deb] Error 2 Any suggestions of how to get past this? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1220426 Title: [nvidia-prime]Freeze while using touchpad Status in X.Org X server: Fix Released Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Using Asus N43SL laptop as an example, with nvidia-prime installed, so the dedicated NVIDIA graphics card (GT 540m) is in use, once in a while, my screen will freeze when I use my touchpad.
