Re: rough code paths draft doc
Mathieu Lacage writes: hi, I eventually got over my previous AddInputHandler puzzling and kept on reading code until I finished the included rough outline of useful code paths in the XServer. I've extended the article about AddInputHandler() have you read it? I am planning to turn this into a real documentation but real life matters make it unreasonable for me to finish this before the end of august.

I'm willing to poke around with the stuff, but I lack docs concerning the chipset.

The hardware is working (tested with windows).

[XFree86] Xfree86_3.3.6 vs. 4.3.0 to get s3-module
Title: Xfree86_3.3.6 vs. 4.3.0 to get s3-module Hello everybody, I´m a newby so forgive me if I ask stupid questions. I have debian woody with xfree86 version 4.1.0 and S3 Trio V64+ graphic card (765 Chip) on a Pentium I Board. Unfortunately, version 4.1.0 only supports savage and virge, which means I have either to upgrade to 4.3.0 or downgrade to 3.3.6 to get the s3 module. Which alternative would you prefer? However, is there any difference, since I just need the s3 module? When I run the PreInstall-script of 3.3.6, what will happen if I have a newer glibc version than this script assumes? I mean downgrading makes me a bit suspicious. Thanks in advance and regards gebhard
Re: [XFree86] Xfree86_3.3.6 vs. 4.3.0 to get s3-module
I´m a newby so forgive me if I ask stupid questions. stupid questions are hard to forgive, but questions stemming from a lack of knowlege are not a problem. I don't see any stupid questions :-) I have debian woody with xfree86 version 4.1.0 and S3 Trio V64+ graphic card (765 Chip) on a Pentium I Board. Unfortunately, version 4.1.0 only supports savage and virge, which means I have either to upgrade to 4.3.0 or downgrade to 3.3.6 to get the s3 module. Which alternative would you prefer? Using 3.3.6's XF86_S3 server is definitely the easy way to go. The server works great on 99% of hardware. You won't RENDER support, xrandr, etc but that shouldn't be a serious issue. In other words, if you want AA fonts, hot resolution changes, etc you'll need XFree86 4.3, but if you don't care or rather sensibly think it's a bit too much fuss, then I suggest you stick with 3.3.6 . 99% of apps are happy with a v3.3.6 server (for that matter, 95% are happy with an ancient X server like that found on SCO OpenServer!). However, is there any difference, since I just need the s3 module? The v3 X servers are actually separate programs, one per driver. In practice it doesn't make much difference. Usually, apt-get install xserver-s3 and if needed dpkg-reconfigure xserver-s3 will do the trick. When I run the PreInstall-script of 3.3.6, what will happen if I have a newer glibc version than this script assumes? I mean downgrading makes me a bit suspicious. The XFree86 3.3 binaries included in Debian 3.0 are built against the same glibc as the rest of the system, and it won't matter. If you're considering building your own XFree86 3.3.x then I suggest that you either use the one that comes in the distro, or upgrade to 4.3 if you want to build your own.

[XFree86] Beginner with ati video card
Hi, I am a newbie trying to make the transition from Windows to Linux. I have installed Mandrake 9.1, and I have performed all of the available package updates. I am not completely comfortable with using command line terminal yet, so I am still stuck in GUI mode. I am trying to get everything set up so that my wife and kids can use the computer without too much hassle. They don't care to tinker with Linux and just want it to work. I like to tinker and learn, but in order to completely break away from Windows, I have to have certain functions working somewhat seamlessly (though they only work properly with Windows about 1/4 of the time). I have an ATI All in Wonder 8500DV (64 M video ram), and the setup programs have detected every function properly except the TV receiver. The Drakx TV setup doesn't detect the receiver. Has anyone had this problem and resolved? What skill level is needed to install the correct drivers, etc.? Any help would be appreciated.

Re: [XFree86] XFree86 to Apple 17 Studio Display -- only blank screen
THe horiz sync and vert refresh rates are being detected by DDC and I have put them explicitly in the config -- with no effect. In response to another suggestion, I also downloaded the CVS drivers dated last thursday-- again without effect.

[XFree86] Old ATI mach(264vt2) video card
Are these drivers compatible with my card and Windows 95? Or is this just for Linux users? If it is only for Linux, does anyone know where I can get drivers updated beyond ATI's abysmal support for their graphic cards?
Re: [XFree86] ati mach264vt2
I'm new here too. I believe (according to old docs) I'm running the exact same vid card attached to my old HP Pavillion (trying to test linux). Running Mandrake 9.1 and XFree 4.3, I've had no luck getting the x server to start (ERROR: Screens found but no usable config to use...). So my first instinct is to say no, this card will not work under XFree86. I'm gonna buy a cheapo trident and try again. This h/w incompatibility is the only thing that will keep linux from being accepted by the masses. This card works under Windows. -Kevin [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hey, I am new here and I don't know where to put this question.

[XFree86] X server crash

Claudiu Spataru Off hand I would say XFS is not running. Open a terminal and type; ps | grep xfs If it is running you should get something similar to this; xfs 1019 0.0 1.2 7840 6320 ?S21:10 0:00 xfs -port -1 -daemon -droppriv -user xfs If it is not running, the do a su in a terminal and (I think RH puts it in the same place as Mandrake) type this; /etc/init.d/xfs start then type; startx -- Registered Linux user 193414 http://counter.li.org Trying? My contribution was much closer to a feeble wave in the general direction of something that might lead you one step closer to a solution if you squint really hard and do all of the work. ___ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
Re: [XFree86] ati mach264vt2
You'll need to send your /var/log/XFree86.0.log file so that we can try to figure out what's wrong. Jesse On Sun, 3 Aug 2003, Kevin wrote: I'm new here too.

[XFree86] Xfree86 Problems
Dear Sirs: I keep getting about 50 to 60 e-mails a day from people who have problems with setting up XFree on their machines. I signed up for your newsletter, some how these e-mails are being directed to me. If this continues I will have to block your site on my e-mail.

Re: [XFree86] Xfree86 Problems
Andrew, I think everyone gets a copy of these Emails. I just signed up too. I think it shotguns the emails to everyone signed up as sort of a network effect to see if anyone has figured out the problems. I guess this way members help each other. It sounds really cool, and should make for fantastic progress in all directions. However, it is a whole hell of a lot of emails.
Re: [XFree86] Xfree86 Problems
I keep getting about 50 to 60 e-mails a day from people who have problems with setting up XFree on their machines. I presume you joined the [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list? I signed up for your newsletter, some how these e-mails are being directed to me. It's a mailing list. Whenever anybody sends a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED], the mailing list address, then everybody on the list gets it. It's an internet discussion and communication tool, an excellent one - but it can lead to quite a bit of email! I use automatic filters to sort messages from the (many) mailing lists I'm on into specific mailboxes, so I never even see them in my inbox. I can then go over each list at my leasure. Most mail clients can do this, or if you're using an IMAP server (like me) you can have the server do it before you even download your mail. I'm not aware of any XFree86 newsletter, and there doesn't seem to be an announce list (usually the closest thing to a newsletter that most open source projects have) for xfree86. What is the best way to stay up to date with developments in XFree86 w/o reading the lists? Anybody? It strikes me that a note on the the [EMAIL PROTECTED] list page saying that traffic is moderate for a mailing list - you can expect up to 50 messages a day - might be an idea. If this continues I will have to block your site on my e-mail. There's no need for that. If you want to unsubscribe, simply read the instructions on http://www.xfree86.org/lists.html . In particular, this is the page you'll want to use to unsubscribe: http://www.xfree86.org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86/ ___ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
