Hi!

Currently, it is only made to work with builds using GDK and Cairo together.
Thus, it will probably not work with Lucid.

However, I'm working on more broad support for other X-toolkit based builds.
Some partial implementation of this support is already up in my fork: https://github.com/TheVaffel/emacs
You can have a sneak peek at that if you're eager to try it, although it's work in progress.

Best,
Håkon

Is it going to work for:

GNU Emacs 29.0.50 (build 3, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, X toolkit, cairo version 1.17.4, Xaw3d scroll bars)

Where I use Lucid build?
