Switching from Xv hardware scaling to X11 output
Hello ---
I'm trying to fix an application (cinelerra) that changes from using
Xv hardware scaling to using unaccelerated X11 output in the middle of
a video stream. Everything works fine, but there is a black flash
(output window goes dark) for a fraction of a second at the switch.
Current shutdown code looks something like this:
case BC_YUV422:
XvStopVideo(top_level-display, xv_portid, last_pixmap);
for(int i = 0; i ring_buffers; i++) {
XFree(xv_image[i]);
}
XShmDetach(top_level-display, shm_info);
XvUngrabPort(top_level-display, xv_portid, CurrentTime);
shmdt(shm_info.shmaddr);
shmctl(shm_info.shmid,
IPC_RMID, 0);
break;
Output window goes black soon after XvStopVideo call. Is there
something I can do immediately before or after this call to avoid
having a period of time when no image is shown? Something I can avoid
doing? My blind attempts haven't worked.
Thanks!
Nathan Kurz

Re: find a window and give it the focus
I realize this isn't exactly what you were asking to do, but perhaps you should look at the manpage for XCirculateSubwindows. XCirculateSubwindowsDown will lower your top window to the bottom and the one below it will be on top. This is very similar to what you wanted to do and doesn't require you to parse the window tree. Keep in mind though, for some users, the topmost window is not always the one that has focus (this is even true of win32 programming when focus follows pointer (or win32 XMouse) is set), and you must specifically set input focus to the window. Also some users detest it (read as I hate it) when window stacking order is changed on them by applications. -- Nathan Laredo [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Mon, 12 Jul 2004 11:02:05 +0300, Eugen Andronic [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello all, I'm new to X window programming, so maybe my problem is very simple for many of you.

[XFree86] M$ Intellimouse Explorer (wireless) v2.0 extra buttons?
Hi, I recently purchased the aforementioned mouse, which works quite well. I'm assuming that the tilting scroll wheel counts as two buttons, the vertical motion of said wheel counts as two, click down of wheel counts as one, LMB/RMB count as one each, and the forward backward buttons count as one each as well. My xf86config files options: Section InputDevice Identifier Mouse0 Driver mouse Option Protocol ExplorerPS/2 Option Device /dev/psaux Option Buttons 9 Option ZAxisMapping 6 7 Option Emulate3Buttons yes EndSection The emulate 3 buttons is on because the MMB is stiff, and the scroll wheel is smooth, it makes navigating using the MMB in blender quite a chore. What I really want to do is swap the mapping between the closest thumb button and the MMB, so that the thumb button acts as the MMB. Any thoughts on the matter? Thanks __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Re: DPI with multiple heads and virtual desktops
Dr Andrew C Aitchison wrote: On Wed, 20 Aug 2003, Alex Deucher wrote: this is a semi-fix, but it still does not deal with monitors that have different DPI. Perhaps this is something that needs to be looked at for xfree 5. Almost certainly not before XFree86 v5. Even then I don't think a solution to your problem is actually possible for Xinerama; I don't know whether it would be for MergedFB. Xinerama *hides* the fact that there are two heads, so there is no way for the app to be told a different DPI debending which head it is currently on - what should it be told if it is on both ? This is my point exactly. When I raised this issue it was not to elicit a correct solution, but rather to point out that the whole notion of DPI is nonsense WRT Xinerama/MergedFB. I would suggest this as a correct-ish solution: If Xinerama/MergedFB detects that both screens have nearly the same resolution (to within some configurable tolerance) then use the average of the two. Otherwise the user has to specify the DPI to use with the -dpi command line switch or some other mechanism. (Is there a DPI option in the XF86Config file?) It might be nice to be able to specify use DPI from screen foo in the ServerLayout section to simplify the process a bit. IMO either you want the same DPI on both screens (fake whatever value you want with DisplaySize or X -dpi NN) or you want two non-xinerama heads - display:0.0 and display:0.1, which allows apps on each head to get the right answer for that screen*, and stops the DPI changes which would occur if the window was allowed to move between screens. I agree, but I think that Xinerama/MergedFB could at least be smart enough to either: A. do the right thing if you have two displays with the same DPI or B. throw in the towel when you have two displays with very different DPI.

[XFree86] XIO: fatal IO error 0 (Success) on X server
I have a SuSE8.1 system installed with the XFree86 4.3.0 packages from
SuSE for 8.1 and KDE 3.1 on top of that. 50% of the times that I run an
application we wrote I get the following error:
XIO: fatal IO error 0 (Success) on X server ebony:0.0
after 14 requests (13 known processed) with 0 events remaining.
then that is it and it exits. The other 50% of the time it runs
perfectly. NOTE: I compiled the application using gcc3.1. If I compile
it on a SuSE7.1 system with the SuSE X 4.2.0 packages and then run it on
a SuSE8.1 system it works fine. Also note: this happens on all of the
SuSe8.1 system I have (about 20 or so) so it can't be specific to Video

strace on the application. Note: DRI is setup and working and loads
just fine from the looks of the X log.

[I18n]Backspace
Hi all, I have modified the X source to support Indian languages. Here to delete the previous character through the code itself, I used the value '\b' in the buffer. It works fine. Now the problem is, for some key press, I need more than one back space, where I called some fakeKeyEvents() recursively. But whatever the no. of backspace I needed, it is not happening that much, it just deletes only one character backward and finished the backspacing. The routine in the source is processing, but it doesnt delete the character. This works fine for qt based applications. What might be the reason ? anyone have any idea ? pls with Regards -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Viveka Nathan K, DON Lab, IITM, Chennai-36, India.

[Fonts]Xft acceleration
Hello, I have found a problem with X and really fast scrolling terminal windows(named gnome-terminal from Gnome2) using Xft to render fonts. It will cause the mouse cursor to repeatedly freeze for a second as long as it's scrolling fast. I have been told this is caused by lack of Xft acceleration in video drivers. Is anyone working on this, planning to work on this, or could be convinced to work on this? It is a quite annoying problem and the only workaround I have found is to renice terminal windows to 3.

[Newbie]changing resolution on a Dell Inspiron 8000 / ATI Rage 128?
My main question: is it possible to get the LCD on a Dell Inspiron 8000 laptop to work with X at something other than a single resolution. In my case the LCD is 1400x1050, and I can't seem to come up with a modeline for lower resolution that doesn't get rejected. And all of the default modes are rejected too. I've seen other people asking about this on the lists, but couldn't find anywhere that the issue has been resolved. I don't know much about X, and got into all of this because I want to run quake3 and need to get the direct rendering to work (and higher res may be a problem, given that my video card only has 8MB of memory). I've included all sorts of stuff below... hopefully enough to go on for anyone willing to help. I am, but the way, running redhat 7.3 (kernel 2.4.18-3, XFree86 version 4.2.0); and the video card is an ATI Rage 128 Mobility M4. The screen does by the way work just fine in 1400x1050 mode.

[I18n]Event generations..
Hi,, I have a doubt.. As per the Indian languages, There are some consonants and vowels. On combination of Consonant and Vowel, the glyph to be display is different. It is not similar either to Consonant or Vowel, Its completely different. Normally , in English, if the consonant 't' is followed by vowel 'a', we will write it as 'ta', but in Indian languages, these two chars 'ta' will be written in some different way. For Indian language, I mapped (for eg.) 'D' to a vowel and 'K' to a consonant. If I type 'K' the corresponding consonant to that 'K' would be displayed. If I type the consonant again, it just display the corresponding consonants and going on and on. but, If I type the vowel character 'D' next to the consonant 'K', the already printed consonant, should be removed and the character corresponding to the combination of the Consonant+Vowel should be displayed. This is the thing needed for all the Koffice application( of course, KDE). so, I am modifying the Xlibrary. Do you have any Idea? How to do that? Things I have tried are : To delete the already displayed consonant, we have to generate backspace event, so, in the XTranslateKeySym(), while the match for Consonant and vowel comes, I just assign *sym_rtrn = 65288; (for backspace) and assigned the resulting glyph in buffer such as buffer = resultingValue; but it sends only backspace, not printing the content of the buffer.. If I assigned the values in buffer as buffer[0]='\b'; strcat(buffer,resultingValue); It displays a box for '\b' (in KDE Applns) and appended the resultingValue with that. Now, I think, what happen If I generate a seperate event for backspace ? for that, I have to give a KeyPress and KeyRelease Events, By using, XPeekEvent, I can get the KeyRelease event, but I couldnt get the Keypress event. I dont know, whether I am moving in a correct way... !!

I have tried to set up my computer so that 2 people can use it at once. I followed what this guy did http://cambuca.ldhs.cetuc.puc-rio.br/multiuser/; and I realize that his setup is just a hack and patch job. I was wondering if there are plans to support this some time (may be option in layout to ignore VT inputs?) anyhow I am CLOSE to getting it done and managed to have one or the other (with 2nd mouse and keyboard working on it) but when I load it up it seems to freeze the current screen/terminal. The guy said that the setup does not work on all video cards and apparently a GeForce2Pro and ATI All-in-wonder (Mach64) or Diamond 550 (TNT) setup doesn't work right now (dang nvidia official drivers sometimes...). Now that I have babbled on for a bit i am asking is this is: already implemented,might be,kernel problem, never will work. I personally like the idea of 2 people able to use 1 computer (I KNOW about terminals over network (100bit) but ever tried to play a game or DVD on it? hehe SLOW! may be USB2.0 will fix that?). Linux is the multiuser at the same time and Windoz can only dream of it. (I hear there is some professional 2000 gold delux super server edition that can for 2000$ ha ha) if this is not in any plans but you think it is possible (officially) who can i bug err e-mail that would know for sure?
