How to convert the server time in xEvent to system time?

2004-08-10 Thread Weidong Cui
Hi, There,

xEvent.u.keyButtonPointer.time (aka 'server time'?), defined in
X11/Xproto.h, indicates the number of milliseconds elapsed since the X
server started.  I want to convert it to an absolute time which then can
be compared with times recorded by gettimeofday () in some other program.
Unfortunately, after spending a lot of time, I still can't find out how to
do it.  If you happen to know how to do it, can you please tell me?

Thanks a lot!
Weidong Cui

Hi,
I have a Compal CY27 laptop with the 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics 
Device (rev 02) (lspci output).

Even though the BIOS allow me to change the memory allocated to video 
(32M right now), Xfree only see two built in modes:

(**) I810(0): *Built-in mode 800x600
(**) I810(0): *Built-in mode 640x480
I already tried to replace the 800x600 mode by 1024x768 using Poirer's 
855resolution , but it does not work (I loose the 800x600 mode, and 
can not get 1024x768, ending only with 640x480).

Does any one know why this is happening? WindowsXP and a commercial X 
server (Xi Graphics) both can reach 1024x768.

Sergio

Hello,
I had a problem with my laptop (a DELL 510m with a 1400x1050 screen 
and the i855 chip). It seems that the i810 XFree driver can *only* 
use the video resolutions which are listed into the BIOS.   

I also have a Medion laptop with 1280x800... and Alain Poirer's
855resolution patch fixed it perfectly...

I'm not sure what you're complaining about.  The thread you replied to, 
which you included in your quoted text, includes the solution to your 
problem.

I don't know much about this, but I would suggest, that you use the  
time-function to get the time in seconds.
You divide the number of milliseconds to get seconds and then subtract  
the values.
You get the time of the start of the X-Server in seconds.

Maybe you can use this idea

Hi, Oliver,

Thanks a lot for your reply.  I tried this idea before.  But the time of the
start of the X server I got in this way was not accurate enough for my
purpose.

Does anybody know how X computes the time stamp for xEvents?

Thanks,
Weidong Cui
