The subresources have the same names as the fonts which they replace, e.g., font, font1, etc., so that the ISO-10646-1 fonts can be specified in the XTerm app-defaults file (this is an adaptation of a patch by Tomohiro KUBOTA). * improve Set Font escape string handling by making the relative settings apply to the size of the font, as in shift keypad plus/minus rather than the menu index. * simplify parameter passing for the set-vt-font action and related code. * cleanup some include-ordering, moving some recently-added hardcoded stuff into xterm.h where it will not interfere with the configure script.

David, I mentioned that failure to commit my patches in a timely manner causes me to have a hard time figuring out which have been committed and which haven't (this was when I was sending patches to [EMAIL PROTECTED]). You probably never saw this system from the standpoint of a non-commit developer. The problem here is that you send a patch to the list, it randomly gets committed by someone (you don't know who in advance, so you have to track everyone's committs), then you have to figure out who committed it (if anyone) and if it was done correctly. The system was a mess and did not aid non-commit developers in tracking their patches. Your response to this comment was that I was unorganized and that it cause by my lack of attention to detail. Was that a respectful and non-insulting response to my message? Is this my formal message to piss off? Harold ___ Devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/devel

[I18n] redefining keys
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I have got a notebook with a trackpad and 2 mouse buttons. The middle button is emulated. I find it very inconvenient to press these 2 buttons at once. But I have got the 2 windows buttons I have never used with linux. Is it feasible to redefine the combination of pressing the windows key (reported as Super_L by xev) and mouse button 1 as mouse button 2 and let's say Super_L+Shift (or ALT)+mouse button 1 as mouse button3?

I even tried to compile FreeType 2.1.4 afterwards, thinking that it could be any freetype related issue, but no (and when i turn off antialiasing at KDE3 it gets even worse). Anyone has any clues/tips? Red Hat XFree86, freetype, Xft, etc. is modified with various enhancements which dramatically improve font display quality. If you recompile any of those components from stock sources, you lose those improvements. Hopefully these improvments will be approved in the next major releases of the upstream freetype, Xft, etc. components and no longer require special patches to achieve these results. In the mean time, the easiest and best way to get 4.3.0 running on Red Hat Linux 8.0, is to recompile the 4.3.0 src.rpm from rawhide, which I intentionally keep it so it works on Red Hat Linux 8.0 and newer. To do this, you need to: Take expat, ttmkfdir, freetype, fontconfig src.rpm from RHL 9, and rpm --rebuild each one of them in RHL 8.0. Upgrade each binary package they produce including the -devel packages. ttmkfdir will probably not allow you to install it so leave it alone for now. Now install the rawhide XFree86 4.3.0 src.rpm with rpm -ivh. Then go into the spec file directory and edit XFree86.spec, near the top you'll find a lengthy comment discussing the build_n target options. You will want to set build_psyche to 1 (Red Hat Linux 8.0), which then sets various conditionals throughout the build process to tweak for RHL 8.0. Set all other build_ options to 0 to disable them. Then edit the Release: line, and add your initials to the end after a ., ie: Release: 41.bt to indicate it's your custom build. That does 3 things: 1) It allows you to upgrade to the new packages with rpm easily 2) It allows you to easily upgrade from this build to the next build later on. 3) Easily differentiates between an official Red Hat build and your custom build. Once XFree86 is built (it takes 1-2Gb of free disk space), you should upgrade to it where the binaries got put, by using: rpm -Uvh XFree86-*.rpm ttmkfdir*.rpm As long as you're running the latest Red Hat official kernel update, you'll also end up with DRI working without any fuss. If you have previously installed XFree86 compiled from raw sources however, you'll have one problem. If you try to install the newly built XFree86 rpms as above and receive an error concerning /etc/X11/xkb, then do the following: rm /etc/X11/xkb rm -rf /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb rpm -Uvh XFree86-*.rpm ttmkfdir*.rpm That should resolve the conflict, and allow X to be installed cleanly. If you have problems, feel free to ask for more help on [EMAIL PROTECTED] as numerous users are there who have used my special instructions above and got it running nicely.

[XFree86] Re: ATi Radeon TV output
On Sun, 26 Oct 2003, Fredrik Tolf wrote: I have become aware that the XF86 driver for the Radeon doesn't have support for TV output. This is rather disturbing for me, since I really, really, really want that. Use the GATOS drivers: http://gatos.sf.net So anyway, what I really want to know is, does anyone know where to get documentation on Radeon programming, so that I can add this functionality? In general, you dont. The longer answer is that you need to apply to become a member of ATI developer relations first, and be granted member status. Unless you're working for a company shipping a commercial product or doing official video driver work or similar, or are a game developer or similar, you probably wont be accepted into developer relations as you're not likely to be classified as a developer. If you do get accepted as a developer, you have some access to ATI developer documentation, however you wont get access to video chipset register level programming documentation likely unless you can demonstrate an important need for such documentation which nobody in the OSS community who already has the documentation hasn't already been working on. As stated above, the GATOS project's ATI video drivers support TV out, as does the atitvout program, there may be others. In short, there is enough public information about enabling TVout on ATI video hardware, that IMHO you would be very unlikely to acquire documentation from ATI on this as the information is already public via these projects. I tried mailing ATI, but it has been a couple of weeks and they haven't responded (isn't that actually pretty bad?) I don't think it's bad at all. I have no idea how many incoming emails or phone calls ATI might get from random unknown developers wanting to have their technical specifications, but if I had to guess, I'd say it's rather high. If they had to pay someone to answer the telephone or respond to every one of the incoming emails in detail, and then follow up on the likely useless flamewar thread that would ensue with the handful of people upset they were being refused access to the documentation it would probably cost them at least one person or more's annual salary just for the purpose of saying sorry, but no.. In such cases, it's IMHO easier to just ignore people completely than it is to argue with them, about something you know your answer firmly already about. so I was hoping that the original developers of the Radeon driver would share with me where they got the docs. From ATI by becoming a member of the XFree86 project (back when membership was required in XFree86 to be a developer), and then after that, becoming a member of ATI developer relations. However someone wanting the docs for something that already exists or is already being worked on is likely to be refused access. In the case of TVout, it already exists - you just didn't do your homework hard enough. Also, I've heard of this Gatos project, but last time I checked, they only supported TV DACs that were not part of the core Radeon chip (which is, unfortunately, not my case). Now that I'm sending this mail anyway, does anyone know their progress? Or, does anyone know any other projects similar to Gatos? Last time you checked seems to suggest you don't check the GATOS project very often. GATOS supports pretty much every piece of hardware to which any documentation has ever been provided for, as well as much reverse engineering. If ATI would consider giving anyone any documentation that hasn't been released already, they'd most likely give it to developers who already have NDA agreements in place, such as the GATOS developers, or DRI developers. I think the general concensus out there is that there are enough developers who already have any documentation there is to have, that any features that are unsupported yet, can be supported by existing developers who have the docs. If nobody has docs for something in particular, the only people likely to get them are people already under NDA. Of course, this is just my opinion based on my own observations. I have no idea what the official criterion is which decides who will officially get NDA access to the documentation of ATI's video hardware. I've got the doc under NDA for up to R200 chipsets, and if there were newer docs available, I'd probably be able to request them myself. I don't see any newer docs being available, so I think it's a waste of time for people not already under NDA to bother asking. Best thing to do is join the GATOS project, or some other project already doing this, than to try to startup your own new project. I wouldn't bother waiting for a response from ATI though. Quite frankly if I were ATI and getting hundreds of requests which I wasn't going to say yes to, at some point I'd just start ignoring them as incoming spam, or sending out autoresponders Thanks for emailing us, we can't respond individually to

I do have nVIDIA drivers for Linux but I don't know how to terminate X server to reach the console. I have tried [Ctrl+Alt+Backspace] and [Ctrl+X] but neither of those commands terminate it. Instead, [Ctrl+Alt+Backspace] puts the system in standby. I believe I have version 4.3.0 of XFree86 but I am not 100% sure. Any help regarding this matter will be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Edit /etc/inittab to change the initdefault from 5 to 3, reboot, log in as root, and use startx 2/tmp/xerrors to test your configuration tweaking. Cheers, -- jra -- Jay R.

Re: [XFree86] alt+gr does not work within X; right alt, that is
I have the same kind of probleme with French Macintosh keyboard (on the
PC I hae no problem).
So the problem is to have
Left Alt + 5 = {
Left Alt + Ctrl + F1 = Switch to virtual text console 1.
I suceed to do this under the text console, but I am searching in order
to solve my problem with X.
So I give you what I understand.
Your XF86Config file must be read with the rules/xfree86 file.
Section InputDevice
IdentifierGeneric Keyboard
Driverkeyboard
OptionCoreKeyboard
OptionXkbRulesxfree86
OptionXkbModelpc105
OptionXkbLayoutse
OptionXkbVariantse
EndSection
(In Mandrake, the XkbRules is default, so I have to find the right file).
Then by reading the xfree86 file, you will discover where the pc105 file
will be.
Then, you have to found the symbol file that links a key to a char.
You can try the xev utility to help the X expert to understand your
problem.
In this list, some body gives me a good xmodmap solution by reading by
xev trace. But unfortunatly, I lost the Alt+Ctl+F1 switching.
