I'm looking for a little help if someone out there remembers anything about compiling DVX stuff.

I have a couple of DVX machines setup to attempt some X client development. I'm trying to get one of the client demos to successfully compile to verify that the environment is setup correctly. I think my setup is good, but the dvx development libraries are too old for 2.03. I think I'm very close to a successful compile but hit a few header errors and warning.

c:\dvx\include\sys\time.h error: redefinition of struct 'timeval'
c:\djgpp\include\time.h note: originally defined here

...same goes with struct 'timezone'. In addition, a couple of incompatible implicit declaration warnings.

I also tried using the qddvx102 source libraries. I actually got a successful compile, but ran into problems linking object files. Tried to link with qdlib200 which are newer X11 libraries. Lots of link errors, so that was no good. 

QUESTION: Do I need to go back to DJGPP 1.X -OR- work my way through the errors with 2.03. I would like to bring the DVX libraries up to date so there is a good foundation to work with. 

Any suggestions?
